Beware of pushing the file mataphor too far, jpg(1) and tojpg(1) work
pretty well, as pipelined processes though animated gifs don't fit so well.
This said animated gifs are really short movies so gif -c could output a
movie clip file (format yet to be defined) rather than a single image file,
this would fit the model much better...
If anyone is interested I ranted on the idea of a toolkit approach to movies
