<para><literal>TIFFError</literal> invokes the library-wide error-handling

function to (normally) write an error message to <literal>stderr</literal>.

The <literal>fmt</literal> parameter is a <literal>printf(3S)</literal> format

string, and any number of arguments can be supplied. The <literal>module</literal>

parameter, if non-zero, is printed before the message. The <literal>module

</literal> parameter typically is used to identify the software module in

which an error is detected.</para>

<para>Applications that want to capture control in the event of an error should

use <literal>TIFFSetErrorHandler</literal> to override the default error handler.

A NULL (0) error-handling function can be installed to suppress error messages.
