World files *MUST* have the extension .wld. ESRI's convoluted naming conventions
for world files are not supported.

Thanks Brent, I checked out this package. It was simple, putting geo data
in a tiff file or .tfw file. Just what I wanted.
I have successfully added a geotif file to my map now, however using a
standard .tif file and .tfw file didn't work. This doesn't particularly
worry me as I have something working. I'm just mentioning it in case it is
a bug.
My .map file contained:
LAYER
NAME "topo25k"
TYPE RASTER
STATUS ON
DATA topo25k.tif
#OFFSITE 0
END # Layer
The geotiff file can be found at:
http://www.cat.org.au/bikeast/camerons/topo25k.tif
The same file without geo data can be found at:
http://www.cat.org.au/bikeast/camerons/topo25k.tif.bak
and the top25k.tfw file contains:
8.2e-005
0
0
-9.01e-005
151.1703
-33.8657
