• ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of library TIFF 4.3.0 uploaded.

    From [via djgpp-announce@delorie.com]" <@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 16 19:13:10 2022
    This is a port of library TIFF 4.3.0 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


    DJGPP specific changes.
    =======================

    SIGINT and SIGQUIT will be reenabled if stdin and/or stdout are
    switched to binary mode while they are connected to the console.
    This is the only DJGPP specific change to the sources I have done.
    Apart from this, only the usual configuration files have been added,
    especialy sed scripts to fix the libtool files and they are located
    in the "djgpp" directory together with the diffs.

    Apart from the DJGPP specific changes also all debian specific
    patches have been applied. These are all patches from
    tiff_4.3.0-6.debian.tar.xz available at:
    http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/tiff/.

    To configure and compile the package and later to use it, you will
    have to install the zlib, xz, jpeg, jbig and the png port available at
    ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/zlb1212b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2apps/xz-525a.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/png1637b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jpeg9eb.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jbig21br2.zip
    Of course, you can download any newer version of these libraries
    if available.

    To compile the source code LFN support is required. I have build it
    on WinXP and Win98SE but I have never tried to build it on any other
    OS.


    As usual, all djgpp specific files (diffs, README files, etc.) are
    stored in the "djgpp" directory. The sources have been configured to
    be build in the "0build" directory. If for some reason it does not
    work for you, delete its contents and configure from scratch again
    running the command: ..\djgpp\config.bat ../.

    Please read the docs. There are no info formated docs. All the
    extensive documentation is html formated and placed in
    /share/doc/libtiff.430/html

    For further information about library TIFF please read the docs and
    NEWS file.




    The port consists of the usual two packages that have been produced
    using djdev205 (CVS repository code) and can be downloaded from
    ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (time stamp 2022-04-27):
