  12 Contributed TIFF Software
 
  17 The 
<B>contrib
</B> directory has contributed software that
 
  18 uses the TIFF library or which is associated with the library
 
  19 (typically glue and guidance for ports to non-UNIX platforms, or tools that
 
  20 aren't directly TIFF related).

  32 scripts and files from Karsten Spang for building
 
  33                 the library and tools under VMS
 
  42 various tools from Dan & Chris Sears, including a simple X-based viewer
 
  51 two programs by Patrick Naughton for converting
 
  52                 between Sun rasterfile format and TIFF (these

  64 scripts and files from Niles Ritter for building
 
  65 the library and tools under Macintosh/MPW C and
 
  75 scripts and files from Peter Greenham for building

  85 scripts and files from Scott Wagner for building
 
  86 the library under Windows NT and Windows 
95. (The makefile.vc in the
 
  87 libtiff/libtiff directory may be sufficient for most users.)
 
  93 <B>contrib/win_dib
</B> 
  96 two separate implementations of TIFF to DIB code suitable for any Win32 
 
  97 platform.  Contributed by Mark James, and Philippe Tenenhaus.

 116 scripts and files from Alexander Lehmann for building
 
 117                 the library under MSDOS with the DJGPP v2 compiler.
 
 126 scripts and files from Niles Ritter for adding private
 
 127          tag support at runtime, without changing libtiff.
 
 136 code from Mike Johnson to read+write images in memory
 
 137 without modifying the library
 
 146 various routines from Conrad Poelman; a TIFF image iterator and
 
 147    code to support ``private sub-directories''
