1. Invoking fly
Note that the command line arguments for v1.1 and later are different from v1.0 and earlier.
The standard manner used to invoke fly is:
fly -i <input file> -o <output file>
You can omit the input file, and fly takes its directives from stdin, and if you omit
the output file, the output goes to stdout.
   Using the -q switch sets fly to quiet mode - no on-screen reporting.
   A quick reference to directives may be seen by using the -h switch.


2. The command file
The command file uses a number of directives. It must start with one of the following lines:
existing /path/to/file.gif
   if modifying an existing image, OR
new
size x,y 
   for creating a new image of width x pixels, height y pixels.
After the initial command, any of the commands below may be used.
To create more than one image from a command file, use the directive end, followed by either
existing /path/to/file.gif
name <filename.gif>
   if modifying an existing image, OR
new
size x,y
name <filename.gif>
   for creating a new image.
Note:
   All x,y values are in pixels measured from the top left of the image.
   For a 256x256 image, top left is 0,0 and bottom right is 255,255. All x1,y1,x2,y2
   pairs must specify the top left and bottom right of the shape, where appropriate.
   All RGB colour values are in integer format, not hexadecimal.
   Arc sweeps are clockwise.


3. Directives & explanations
line x1,y1,x2,y2,R,G,B
   Creates a line from coordinates x1,y1 to coordinates x2,y2 of colour R,G,B.

   with edge of colour R,G,B.
fsquare x1,y1,s,R,G,B
   Creates a square qith the top left corner at coordinates x1,y1, with side s in length, filled with colour R,G,B.
poly R,G,B,x1,y1...,xn,yn
   Creates a polygon (has to be closed) through the points x1,y1 to x2,y2 to ... to xn,yn,
   of colour R,G,B.
   Note that the colour values appear before the coordinates in this directive.
fpoly R,G,B,x1,y1...,xn,yn
   Creates a polygon (has to be closed) through the points x1,y1 to x2,y2 to ... to xn,yn, filled with colour R,G,B.
   Note that the colour values appear before the coordinates in this directive.
arc x1,y1,w,h,start,finish,R,G,B
   Creates an arc of colour R,G,B centered at coordinates x1,y1, of width w and height h,
   starting at start degrees
   and finishing at finish degrees.
ellipse x1,y1,w,h,R,G,B
   Creates an ellipse of colour R,G,B centered at coordinates x1,y1, of width w and height h.
fcircle x1,y1,d,R,G,B
   Creates a circle centered at coordinates x1,y1, of diameter d, filled with colour R,G,B.
circle x1,y1,d,R,G,B
   Creates a circle of colour R,G,B centered at coordinates x1,y1, of diameter d.
fill x,y,R,G,B
   Flood fills with the colour R,G,B from the coordinates x,y to the edge of the area of
   the original color of x,y.
filltoborder x,y,R1,G1,B1,R2,B2,G2
   Flood fills with colour R2,G2,B2 from x,y to the border of colour R1,G1,B1.
string R,G,B,x,y,<size>,<string>
   Writes a string starting at x,y (in the colour R,G,B), of font size <size>, where size
   can be one of tiny (5x8), small (6x12), medium (7x13, bold), large (8x16) or giant (9x15, bold).
stringup R,G,B,x,y,<size>,<string>
   Writes a string vertically starting at x,y (in the colour R,G,B), of font size <size>,
   where size can be one of tiny, small, medium, large or giant. The string will go up from
   the coordinates supplied.
copy x,y,x1,y1,x2,y2,[source-filename.gif|`command`]
   Copies region x1,y1 - x2,y2 of source-filename.gif or the GIF output of command to the
   coordinates x,y of the image being created/modified.
   If x1,y1,x2,y2 are all -1, copy the entire image.
copyresized x1,y1,x2,y2,dx1,dy1,dx2,dy2,[source-filename.gif|`command`]
   Copies region x1,y1 - x2,y2 of source-filename.gif or the GIF output of command to the
   area dx1,dy1 - dx2,dy2 of the image being created/modified, resizing the image to fit.
   If x1,y1,x2,y2 are all -1, copy the entire image.
getpixel x,y
   Gets the colour index of the point at x,y.
setpixel x,y,R,G,B
   Sets the point at x,y to the colour R,G,B.
colourchange R1,G1,B1,R2,G2,B2
   Changes all pixels of colour R1,G1,B1 to R2,G2,B2.
setbrush filename.gif
   Sets the current "brush" to filename.gif. Subsequent directives of line, dline, rect,
   poly and arc will use the selected "brush" to draw their lines, until a call of killbrush.
killbrush
   Turns off the brush selection. Calls to line, dline, rect, poly and arc will then use
   the standard single-pixel width brush.
settile filename.gif
   Sets the current "tile" to filename.gif. Subsequent directives of fill, and fpoly will
   use the selected "tile" as a fill pattern, until a call of killtile.
killtile
   Turns off the tile selection. Calls to fill, filltoborder and fpoly will then use the
   specified colour for fills.
setstyle R1,G1,B1, R2, G2, B2, ..., Rn,Gn,Bn
   Various line calls can use a style, specified by one or more colour settings for each
   pixel, that is repeated for the length of the "line". All subsequent directives of line,
   dline, rect, poly and arc will use the selected "style" to draw their lines, until a
   call of killstyle.
killstyle
   Turns off the style selection. Calls to line, dline, rect, poly and arc will then use
   the standard single-pixel width brush.
transparent R,G,B
   Makes the colour R,G,B the transparent colour.
sizex
   Returns the width of the image in pixels.
sizey
   Returns the height of the image in pixels.
rotate deg
   Rotates the GIF image deg degrees clockwise, where deg is 90, 180 or 270.
interlace
   Makes the image output by fly an interlaced GIF.


4. Comments in the command file
At any point in the command file, you can insert a comment line starting with "#".
Example:
new
size 256,256
#
# start with a background fill
fill 1,1,255,255,255
#
# then a circle in the middle
circle 128,128,180,0,0,0
#
etc.
