| 6 | This file is just a placeholder; all the documentation is now in | 
|---|
| 7 | HTML in the html directory.  To view the documentation point your | 
|---|
| 8 | favorite WWW viewer at html/index.html; e.g. | 
|---|
| 9 |  | 
|---|
| 10 | netscape html/index.html | 
|---|
| 11 |  | 
|---|
| 12 | If you don't have an HTML viewer then you can read the HTML source | 
|---|
| 13 | or fetch a PostScript version of this documentation from the directory | 
|---|
| 14 |  | 
|---|
| 15 | ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/ | 
|---|
| 16 |  | 
|---|
| 17 | If you can't hack either of these options then basically what you | 
|---|
| 18 | want to do is: | 
|---|
| 19 |  | 
|---|
| 20 | % ./configure | 
|---|
| 21 | % make | 
|---|
| 22 | % su | 
|---|
| 23 | # make install | 
|---|
| 24 |  |

| 25 | More information, email contacts, and mailing list information can be | 
|---|
| 26 | found online at http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/. |
