I need some help with tifftools please! Somebody ftp'
ed it for me from the address mentioned in this newsgroup. It
was a compressed tar file, unpacked about 1,5 Mb in size. Tar
only gets about 900 Kb before it exits with a directory
checksum error. Culprit is a file called cramps.tiff which is
a tiff-format picture file containing 194176 characters in one
line. Everything before this file unpacks, compiles and runs as
a charm but the main programs are missing, only libtiff is there.
Does somebody have an undamaged version of tifftools, PLEASE?

PS.:Excuse me for posting to the net, but neither in the README,
nor in the sources or the manpage was the author's name.
