Openslide Supporting File Format Question

Hi Andrew,

I have a quick question about TIFF file format.
I am wondering whether openslide supports generic tiff format.
It seems that openslide support generic tiff format when I look at the
openslide web site.

Am I correct ?

I installed openslide on Cent OS, and it seems that other formats (including
trestle tif and aperio tif) work fine according to the test.c that was
provided by the source code.

But, It returned 'false' when I executed 'openslide_can_open' function  to
check whether openslide support the tiff format (general tiff file)

So, my question is, does openslide support generic-tif file (traditional )
format ?
If it does, how I can test the code ? why 'openslide_can_open' return false
?

Also, I am wondering whether openslide support 'BIGTIFF' and 'ndpi' file
format.

It would be great help if you give me any advices !!

Thanks,
Steve Oh
