Hello All,

This is my first post.

I have a need to convert FAX Group IV images over to nice little JPGs and
have run into the issue of PIL having a limited set of (de)compression
formats available to it. I know I could do this on a command line but...
rather be able to do it in PIL, yea, I know I am stubborn. Yes, I have read
the archives and source... to a point.

So, this letter is to the brains that be... can you give me a general
outline how I would start? What stubs(API), what CVS... I have no problem
dropping in these functions but just need a little start in the right
direction. I have used LibTIFF and it would probably be where I start,
unless you guys (and girls) think otherwise.

Regards,
Christian Jensen
