<para>Explicitly defines the size of the color map of the resulting gif image. Usually the image will be bicolor with fg as color 1, unless [-f] is explicitly given in case the color map size will be big enough to hold it. However it is sometimes convenient to set the color map size to certain size while the fg color is small mainly so this image may be merged with another (images must match color map size).</para>

<para> Select foreground index (background is always 0). By default it is one and therefore the image result is bicolored. if FG is set to n then color map will be created with 2^k entries where 2^k > n for minimum k, assuming k <= 8. This color map will be all zeros except this forground index. This option is useful if this text image should be integrated into other image colormap using their colors.</para>
