+# For special purposes, you can import this module and call
+# the makedelta or compress functions yourself.  For example,
+# if you have an application that generates a sequence of
+# images, you can convert it to a GIF animation using some-
+# thing like the following code:
+#
+#       import Image
+#       import gifmaker
+#
+#       sequence = []
+#
+#       # generate sequence
+#       for i in range(100):
+#           im = <generate image i>
+#           sequence.append(im)
+#
+#       # write GIF animation
+#       fp = open("out.gif", "wb")
+#       gifmaker.makedelta(fp, sequence)
+#       fp.close()
+#
+# Alternatively, use an iterator to generate the sequence, and
+# write data directly to a socket.  Or something...
