1994.06.26 21:08 "Have tools been converted to Mac THINK?", by Bob Carpenter

I'm new to this group.

I started getting acquainted with the TIFF software this past
week. I've read through the mail archives, printed off the
docs and TIFF 6 spec, and brought libtiff 3.3 over to my Mac 
and got it working under THINK 7.0.3. This was all fairly
simple, thanks to the excellent docs and software organization.

I'm wondering about the tools though (gif2tiff, tiff2bw...), has 
anyone converted these to work under THINK on the Mac? Since I
don't have MPW, my alternative is to upload files to my Unix
machine (via modem) when I want to run a utility - I can see this 
becoming time consuming. If no one else has done this then I may
attempt it.

Also, can someone point me towards some sample code that shows
how I might display TIFF images from within my Mac application?
I suspect an off-screen GWorld is in order. Maybe the NIH Image
software has some code!?

BTW: I have converted all the docs in man1 and man3 to postscript
and can make them available in Unix .tar.Z or Mac .sea formats to
anyone that needs them.

Thanks.
