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 (PlanarConfigura-
    tion=1),  compressed with the Lempel-Ziv & Welch algorithm (Compres-
    sion=5), and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes. These charac-
    teristics can overriden, 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 compres-
    sion algorithm), -c jpeg for the baseline JPEG compression algo-
    rithm, -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
    Does not record colormap information.
