  1. how do i reply to messages that don't appear in my inbox but only on the list?
  2. Andrey: yes, of course. so large file support probably is not my problem. the image was 2.42GB and was not cut off at 2GB. besides - as you remarked - file opened just fine in NIP2, so wasn't badly broken indeed.
  3. For this reason i have not checked if files just under 2GB are working ok.
  4. perhaps it was just the error that John signaled. MacPorts has version 3.8.2 as the most recent release. Is version 3.9 a stable release version? So perhaps I should try to get 3.9 with CVS. does anyone know if that error got fixed in version 3.9?

----- Original Message ----

starting what version was large file support enabled by default in OS X environments? (or has it always been supported for OS X?)

I believe that OS X has always used 64-bit offsets for files (similar to FreeBSD) so it is already large-file capable without libtiff doing anything special at all.
