[FFmpeg-user] create an animated GIF from set of images

[Eugene Dzhurinsky]

Hello!

I am wondering if there is a way to create animated GIF skipping the creation
of AVI file? Most of resources found in google suggest 2-step conversion:

images -> AVI
AVI -> GIF

I'd like to avoid step of creation AVI and create animated GIF from images,
passed to STDIN.

Is it possible?

Thanks!
