 not yet  BJH  Release 10.59.00
 
+              pamtogif: Make data blocks 255 bytes instead of 254.  255 is
+              the maximum allowed by GIF.  254 was intended to not trigger
+              potential bugs in programs that read the file.

               ppmdraw: Add 'filledcircle' command class.  Thanks
