No...it's the version that comes with Slackware v7.1 (version 5.0.1).

Oh...sorry...I was just going by the info on
http://www.apsfilter.org/filetypes.html...since it listed ImageMagick as
the filter for the TIFF file type, I figured there was nothing wrong with
my filter list, which is (output from filtersetup):

found filter gs
found filter a2ps
found filter giftopnm
found filter pnmtops
found filter fig2dev
found filter fig2dev
found filter fig2dev
found filter rasttopnm
found filter gzip
found filter compress
found filter compress
found filter bunzip2
found filter djpeg
