It seems there is major demand, and very little code, to do conversions
between all the graphics standards.

GEE, and there are SO MANY standards to choose from now.

I am primarily interested in converting between TIFF and GIF (both ways)
as well as viewers for TIFF on PC.  Obviously these things will require
some color quantizing since GIF and the PC are "pallette bound".
