51<p><i>tiffgt</i> displays one or more images stored using
52the Tag Image File Format, Revision 6.0. Each image is
53placed in a fixed size window that the user must position on
54the display (unless configured otherwise through X
55defaults). If the display has fewer than 24 bitplanes, or if
56the image does not warrant full color, then
57<small>RGB</small> color values are mapped to the closest
58values that exist in the colormap (this is done using the

129<!-- INDENTATION -->
130<p>For palette images (<i>PhotometricInterpretation</i>=3),
131<i>tiffgt</i> inspects the colormap values and assumes
132either 16-bit or 8-bit values according to the maximum
133value. That is, if no colormap entry greater than 255 is
134found, <i>tiffgt</i> assumes the colormap has only 8-bit
135values; otherwise it assumes 16-bit values. This inspection
136is done to handle old images written by previous (incorrect)
137versions of <i>libtiff</i>.</p>
138<!-- INDENTATION -->
139<p><i>tiffgt</i> can be used to display multiple images
140one-at-a-time. The left mouse button switches the display to
141the first image in the <i>next</i> file in the list of files
142specified on the command line. The right mouse button
143switches to the first image in the <i>previous</i> file in
144the list. The middle mouse button causes the first image in
145the first file specified on the command line to be
146displayed. In addition the following keyboard commands are
147recognized:</p>
