Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of library TIFF 4.0.3 uploaded.
Reply-To:	djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of library TIFF 4.0.3 to MSDOS/DJGPP.

   DJGPP specific changes.
   =======================

   This port requires the use of the CVS version of snprintf.  Other 
minor djgpp
   specific changes are documented in the diffs file.  Apart from these 
changes
   only the usual configuration files have been added, especially sed 
scripts to
   fix the libtool files (ltmain and ltconfig).  They are located in the 
/djgpp
   directory.  As for all binaries and libraries that handle images of 
any kind,
   it should be noted that files (streams) are *always* openend in 
binary mode
   with all the well known implications on a DOS/WINDOWS OS if the stream is
   connected to STDIN and/or STDOUT when these are still connected to 
the console.
   For ppm2tiff.exe, tiff2pdf.exe and iptcutil.exe both SIGINT and 
SIGQUIT are
   reenabled if stdin and/or stdout is connected to console.


   To configure and compile the package and later to use it, you will 
have to
   install the zlib, ljpeg8b and the png port available at 
ftp.delorie.com and
   mirrors as:
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/zlib128b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/png162b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jpeg9b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
   or:
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/zlib128b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/png162b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jpeg9b.zip
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
   Of course, you can download a newer version of zlib, png and jpeg if
   available.  The zlib, png and jpeg stored in /current have been compiled
   with djdev203 and those ones from /beta are compiled with djgpp204.

   Please note that you will need LFN support to be able to configure, 
compile
   and to run the test suite of the package.
   The source package is now distributed configured for both DJGPP 2.03 and
   DJGPP 2.04.  In the top srcdir there is a "_build.203" directory and a
   "_build.204" directory.  If for some reason you need to reconfigure the
   sources delete the complete contain of the _build.20[3|4] directory and
   run the following command:
     ..\djgpp\config.bat ./..
   If for some reason the configuration step fails simply keep 
config.cache and
   start the above command a second time.

   Please read the docs.  There are no info formatted docs.  All the 
extensive
   documentation is html formatted and placed in 
/share/doc/libtiff4.0-3/html


   The port has been compiled using stock djdev203 (patchlevel 2) and 
consists
   of the two packages that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and
