+to the Tag Image File Format, Revision 6.0.
+The header of each
+.SM TIFF
+file (magic number, version, and first directory offset)
+is displayed, followed by the tag contents of each directory in the file.
+For each tag, the name, data type, count, and value(s) is displayed.
+When the symbolic name for a tag or data type is known, the symbolic
+name is displayed followed by it's numeric (decimal) value.
+Tag values are displayed enclosed in ``<>'' characters immediately
+preceded by the value of the count field.
+For example, an
+.I ImageWidth
+tag might be displayed as ``ImageWidth (256) SHORT (3) 1<800>''.

+does not understand.
