I dont think so. If you just want to convert a bitmap-image to GIF, get the NSBitmapImageRep and call representationOfType: using: on it and supply NSGIFFileType as type. But caveat: I too have noticed, that this conversion is buggy! It DOES convert it to 256 colors and dithers it, but it seems to have trouble with some colors (pure black and pure white?). I dont think, GIF is really usefull, so i dont care, but it really DOES look like a bug.

I see that code was written in 1998 - is all that stuff really still necessary?
