If you want to read and write TIFF files, you should get Sam Leffler's
libtiff from ucbvax.berkeley.edu:/pub/tiff/v2.2.tar.Z.  This is a good
library written in C that implements almost all of TIFF5.0.  The current
version is 2.2 and 2.4 will be available *real soon now*.  Libtiff contains
an ASCII version of the TIFF5.0 spec and a few sample programs including a
TIFF viewer for X11.  The mailing list tiff@ucbvax.berkeley.edu is for
people interested in libtiff.  Send mail to sam@okeeffe.berkeley.edu to be
added to the list.
