NAME
sgi2tiff - create a TIFF file from an SGI image file
SYNOPSIS
sgi2tiff [ options ] input.rgb output.tif
DESCRIPTION
sgi2tiff converts a file in the SGI image format to TIFF. By
default, the TIFF image is created with data samples packed(PlanarConfiguration=1), compressed with the Lempel-Ziv &
Welch algorithm (Compression=5), and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes. These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified with the options described below. OPTIONS-c Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image
data: -c none for no compression, -c packbits for the
PackBits compression algorithm), -c jpeg for the base-
line JPEG compression algorithm, -c zip for the Deflate
compression algorithm, and -c lzw for Lempel-Ziv &
Welch (the default).-p Explicitly select the planar configuration used in
organizing data samples in the output image: -p contig
for samples packed contiguously, and -p separate for
samples stored separately. By default samples are packed.-r Write data with a specified number of rows per strip;
by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip is approximately 8 kilobytes.BUGS
