You can't directly, no, but there are some programs out there that will
convert for you. I'm pretty sure that FLI/FLC files are just a group of
individual pictures used as frames in an animation sequence. I have a
program laying around called Video for DOS that can convert between some
different formats of still pictures and animation files (I think I used
it once to convert a MPEG movie into a FLI/FLC movie to test with Allegro
and it rocked). If you'd like, I might be able to attach it to an email
