Chk Tiff file

This program displays the Tiff tags for a given file. It then checks the strips
are where they say they are and are are the correct length.

	chktiff name.tiff | more

A second variant will return the PhotometricInterpretation as a result - or -1
if NOT a tiff file or a bad tiff file.
It will also print the number of bits .. (which is SamplesPerPixel *
BitsPerSample)

	chktiff -x name.tiff

The display version looks something like .......
