This file is just a placeholder; all the documentation is now in
Packit 7838c8
HTML in the html directory.  To view the documentation point your
Packit 7838c8
favorite WWW viewer at html/index.html; 
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
e.g.
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
    firefox html/index.html
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
If you don't have an HTML viewer then you can read the HTML source
Packit 7838c8
or fetch a PostScript version of this documentation from the directory
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
    ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
If you can't hack either of these options then basically what you
Packit 7838c8
want to do is:
Packit 7838c8
Packit 7838c8
    % ./configure
Packit 7838c8
    % make
Packit 7838c8
    % su
Packit 7838c8
    # make install
