Same here. Also, there are many programs that can already convert FITS
to TIFF, like ImageMagick or GIMP. So please put something in the long
description about the features stiff provides that are not in other
programs (like support for pyramidal TIFF files and precise control over
color rendition).

I think it would be nice if you could package the manual as well, and
change the manpage to point to the local manual.
