Command-line tool for .gif files

Hello!

I'm searching for a little (as basic as possible) command -line tool for viewing gif animations.
I found gThumb and animate (imagemagick), but they both have a little problem...
gthumb: no possibility of changing the background when viewing in fullscreen
animate: no possibility of viewing in fullscreen but changing the background...
I want a little tool that I can fully automatically start from the command-line with all needed options, not (like in gthumb) by editing config files

Does maybe anyone know one? please

solved - I used gthumb and made the background of the gif black...

NAME

     ng_gif_demux -- demultiplexer for packets from ng_gif(4) nodes

SYNOPSIS

     #include <netgraph/ng_gif_demux.h>

DESCRIPTION

     The ng_gif_demux netgraph node type demultiplexes the output from ng_gif(4) nodes in the netgraph(4) networking subsystem.

     lated and sent out the gif hook.

     This node type supports the following hooks:

     gif    Connection to the lower or orphans hook of an ng_gif(4) node.

     inet   Hook for input and output of IP frames.

     inet6  Hook for input and output of IPv6 frames.

     atalk  Hook for input and output of AppleTalk frames.

     atm    Hook for input and output of ATM frames.

     natm   Hook for input and output of NATM frames.
