Update README.md #46

Closed mhulse closed 8 years ago

mhulse commented 8 years ago

Updated installation instructions for gifsicle (motived by https://gist.github.com/SlexAxton/4989674#gistcomment-1476312).

The example from comment above uses wget. I prefer to use curl of wget. I don't have wget installed on my system. Not sure if you want to have instructions for both (isn't curl ubiquitous?).

Hi mhulse, those instructions are only for OSX. I would rather link to the INSTALL file of the giflossy repository: https://github.com/pornel/giflossy/blob/master/INSTALL

Those instructions were not sufficient?

Ah, my bad! I just saw this comment over here:

could you please add this to the gifify repo as a PR? very valuable

I should have looked to see if an installation script was already accounted for. I just assumed there was still a need for something as your comment was from Feb.

Since I didn't use that install script I'm not sure I'd be the best person to write a README sentence referring folks to it's location and usage.

For prosperity's sake:

curl -J -L https://github.com/pornel/giflossy/releases/download/lossy%2F1.82.1/gifsicle-1.82.1-lossy.zip  | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --include=mac/gifsicle - -C /usr/local/bin/
