#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Pad a GIF to a square with transparent background, centered.
# Useful for making Slack emojis from rectangular GIFs.
# Usage: gif_to_square.sh <input.gif> [output.gif] [background]

Usage: $0 <input.gif> [output.gif] [background]

Arguments:
    input.gif       Path to the input GIF file (required)
    output.gif      Path to the output GIF file (default: <input>_square.gif)
    background      Background color for padding (default: ${DEFAULT_BG})
                    Use "none" for transparent, or any color name/hex

Examples:
    $0 emoji.gif
    $0 emoji.gif square_emoji.gif
    $0 emoji.gif square_emoji.gif white
    $0 emoji.gif square_emoji.gif "#FF0000"

Note: Requires ImageMagick (magick or convert command)
      Slack emoji max size: 128x128 pixels, 256KB
