6 | This file is just a placeholder; all the documentation is now in | |
7 | HTML in the html directory. To view the documentation point your | |
8 | favorite WWW viewer at html/index.html; | |
9 | ||
10 | e.g. | |
11 | ||
12 | firefox html/index.html | |
13 | ||
14 | If you don't have an HTML viewer then you can read the HTML source | |
15 | or fetch a PostScript version of this documentation from the directory | |
16 | ||
17 | ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/ | |
18 | ||
19 | If you can't hack either of these options then basically what you | |
20 | want to do is: | |
21 | ||
22 | % ./configure | |
23 | % make | |
24 | % su | |
25 | # make install | |
26 | ||
27 | More information, email contacts, and mailing list information can be | |
28 | found online at http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/. | |
