Nope, to the best of my knowledge there isn't one YET. That file was
put there for me so that I could add TIFF support to GIF 3200. (I need
sample files to test it with, and that's what's in the archive.) I'm
sure someone will ask me this, so I'll put it here to lengthen the artic
so I can post it. :) I haven't thslightest when TIFF support will be added 
to GIF 3200 (soon to be renamed Bad Luck Convert, I think). You see, this
thing cald school is eating up gobs and gobs of my time. :( I'm going to be
releasing GIF 3200 v0.20 'soon', but when after thaI add TIFF support
(or IFF, or whatever else I can think of) is anyone's gues I DO plan
on doing it, though, so fear not--it's coming! :)
