version on Aminet.  Have now merged the two into this one archive.

Port of libtiff as shared object.

Double click Install-OS4 to install the SObj and dev files.

This software provides support for the Tag Image File Format (TIFF), a widely used format for storing image data. The latest version of the TIFF specification is available on-line in several different formats. 

Static library usage:

This library is needed by the latest libSDL_image.a build on OS4Depot.

To link with, use: -ltiff -lport

Note that the -lport is necessary because libport.a includes some functions that are needed by libtiff.a that are not part of the clib.

Note: I have only used this port to build the latest "Battle for Wesnoth" (which doesn't use tiff images) so it isn't well tested.

The clib2 build included in the archive is by Blacky_Stardust.
