[Geotiff] Adding projection to GeoTIFF file from MapInfo Tab file

Hi
I would like to use 'geotifcp' to add Geotoff tags to Tiff files exported
from Matlab.

I can add the geo-locations using geotifcp and a tfw file. However I cannot
find an easy way to add the projection information.

Using MapInfo a tab file with projection information is output, that for
example looks like
--
!table
!version 300
!charset WindowsLatin1

Definition Table
  File "meancondep_00000_00020_geo.tif"
  Type "RASTER"
  (411532.09825564997,7665490.0398676498) (0,0) Label "Pt 1",
  (421410.47578294994,7665490.0398676498) (1679,0) Label "Pt 2",
  (411532.09825564997,7656411.7285644496) (0,1544) Label "Pt 3"
  CoordSys Earth Projection 8, 104, "m", 21, 0, 0.9996, 500000, 0
  Units "m"
--

Is there a way to use the projection info in this tab file  together with
geotifcp, to add the proper projection information to the geotiff file ?

Have a nice day
- Thomas
