2005.09.17 06:25 "[patch] update tiffdump man page", by Brad Hards

I've been looking at including support for Microsoft's Office Document Imaging 
format in libtiff.  Obviously that involves a lot of use of tiffdump...

I found that the tiffdump manual page doesn't document the -m option. See 
below for a patch to update it.
