SYNOPSIS
========

```
#!/usr/bin/env perl6

use v6.c;
use NativeCall;
use Graphics::TinyTIFF;

########## reader ##########

my $tiff = TinyTIFFReader_open('cell.tif');

my $description = TinyTIFFReader_getImageDescription($tiff);

my $size = $width * $height;
my @sample-data := buf8.allocate($size);

# you now have @sample-data for the current frame
# and can manipulate it as you wish!

my $format = TinyTIFFReader_getSampleFormat($tiff);
my $samples-per-pixel = TinyTIFFReader_getSamplesPerPixel($tiff);
my $has-next = ?TinyTIFFReader_hasNext($tiff);

my $was-error = ?TinyTIFFReader_wasError($tiff);
my $last-error = TinyTIFFReader_getLastError($tiff) if $was-error;

########## writer ##########

my $tiff-file = TinyTIFFWriter_open('cell2.tif', $bits, $width, $height);
my $description-size = TinyTIFFWriter_getMaxDescriptionTextSize();

print qq:to/END/;
    frames            -> $frames
