I don't doubt that it works for you; apparently I was unlucky.  Before
commenting, I retried it with a number of TIFFs that are test data for
ImageMagick, distributed with TWiki and some scanned pages (HP and
Brother scanners) I had at hand.  I tried both the version from 2003
that you pointed Mattis to and the later version. Neither worked with
any file.

Even though it didn't work out for me, thanks again!

As I noted to Al, it seems to me that since the original author has let
it go stale, it would be a good idea to setup a new repo and consolidate
the patches.  Handing this sort of tool around in e-mail forks seems a
bit hit-or-miss.   e.g. you pointed Mattis to the older version, but you
must also have the newer one :-)  I don't mean to be critical - help is
always appreciated.  Setting up a repo on GitHub is quick and painless...
