Ahhh, I see.  This makes more sense then.  Regardless, since there is 
a manual page for ppm2tiff (man/bmp2tiff.1 in the source tree) there 
would need to be an associated manual page update which at least 
refers to the TIFFOpen(3TIFF) manual page for the meaning of the mode 
options.  The mode options are libtiff version dependent.  Libtiff 4 
(to be released soon) offers more mode options.

Are you willing and able to send a patch for the manual page as well?

Bob
