Ok, I'm sorry if I do dummy questions, but I'm still learning
the basics about all the ffmpeg/video stuff.

I already downloaded the source code from the git repository
and I found two files that I assume are what I need to study:
libavcodec/gif.c (GIF encoder)
libavformat/gif.c (Animated GIF muxer)

Is there any other file I should take a look at?

I was reading those files, and the methods I found give me a
good idea about how to use them, nevertheless I would like to
see a "hello world" example (working), do you have any?

Thank you!

PS: I was looking for one inside the ffmpeg code, but I had no luck.
