+TIFF CHANGE INFORMATION
+
+
+
+
+
+This document describes the changes made to the software between the
+previous and current versions (see above).
+If you don't find something listed here, then it was not done in this
+timeframe, or it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.
+The following information is located here:
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
+
+
+- a -noninteractive flag was added to configure to
+ control whether or not it prints and prompts for configuration information
+
- various typos and fixes were made in configure for the the
+ library-only build support (this and other configure fixes from
+ Richard Mlynarik <mly@adoc.xerox.com>)
+
- bugs were fixed in the handling of pathnames supplied for external
+ packages; e.g. DIR_JPEG
+
- the handling of SETMAKE is now done properly
+
- the default prototype function declaration for pow was corrected
+
- a bug was fixed in libtiff/Makefile.in that caused installation
+ to fail on systems without DSO support
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN LIBTIFF:
+
+
+- Acorn RISC O/S support that was accidentally left out of the
+ left out of the previous distribution is present (from Peter Greenham)
+
- complaints about unknown and/or unsupported codecs have been
+ delayed until they are invoked; this permits applications to open
+ images and look at tags even if the image data is compressed with
+ an unknown/unsupported compression scheme
+
- bugs in handling unknown tags have been corrected; applications
+ that use multiple codecs, each with codec-specific tags, no longer
+ generate confusing error messages
+
- a missing pseudo-tag definition in the CCITT G3 codec was fixed
+ (this problem caused core dumps in the tiffcp program)
+
- pseudo-tags are now treated specially; they are always considered
+ to be set (i.e. they do not use bits in the FIELD_* bit-vectors).
+
- the use of strip chopping can now be controlled on a per-file basis
+ through a mode parameter supplied when opening a file (``C'' to
+ enable strip chopping and ``c'' to disable)
+
- two bugs were fixed in the writing of opposite-endian byte-order
+ files
+
- support was added for three new fax-related tags registered to
+ SGI: FaxRecvParams, FaxRecvTime, and FaxSubAddress
+
- the bit order of image data read and written can now be controlled
+ on a per-file basis through a mode parameter supplied when opening
+ a file (``B'' to force MSB2LSB bit order, ``L'' for LSB2MSB bit
+ order, and ``H'' for the bit order of the native CPU)
+
- the byte order of image and tag data written to newly-created files
+ can now be controlled on a per-file basis through a mode parameter
+ supplied when openening a file (``b'' to force Big-Endian byte order
+ and ``l'' to force Little-Endian byte order)
+
- the use memory-mapped files for images opened read-only can now
+ be controlled on a per-file basis through a mode parameter supplied
+ when opening a file (``M'' to enable use of memory-mapped files
+ and ``m'' to disable use)
+
- the use of the WIN32 define in tiffiop.h has
+ been replaced by __WIN32__
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE TOOLS:
+
+
+- fax2ps now does a save and restore
+ around each page of PostScript; this fixes a problem with VM
+ overflow when printing a many-page document on some printers
+
- a bug in the handling of 3-channel images by ras2tiff
+ was fixed
+
- tiffcp has new options to control the byte order of
+ newly created files: -B for Big-Endian byte order, -L
+ for Little-Endian byte order; a -M option to disable the
+ use of memory-mapped files, and a -C option to disable the
+ use of strip chopping
+
- bugs were fixed in tiffcp's handling of codec-specific tags
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE MANUAL PAGES:
+
+
+- the TIFFOpen page has been updated to reflect the new
+ optional open mode parameters
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE CONTRIBUTED SOFTWARE:
+
+
+- contrib/win95 contains information and code from Philippe Tenenhaus
+ <100423.3705@compuserve.com>
+ about using the software under Windows 95
+
- contrib/winnt contains information and code from Dave Dyer
+ <ddyer@triple-i.com>
+ about using the software under Windows NT
