52<p><i>tiffmedian</i> applies the median cut algorithm to an

54palette image that is written to <i>output.tif</i>. The
55generated colormap has, by default, 256 entries. The image

57values in the colormap.</p>

91<p><small>LZW</small> compression can be specified together
92with a <i>predictor</i> value. A predictor value of 2 causes
93each scanline of the output image to undergo horizontal
94differencing before it is encoded; a value of 1 forces each
95scanline to be encoded without differencing. LZW-specific
96options are specified by appending a
97&lsquo;&lsquo;:&rsquo;&rsquo;-separated list to the
98&lsquo;&lsquo;lzw&rsquo;&rsquo; option; e.g. <b>&minus;c
