I am using ucar.unidata.io.RandomAccessFile in another application to speed processing of some corrupted tiff files.

I discovered that when writing out large chunks of data when the buffer was unmodified the file pointer was not in the correct position.

<            bufferStart = dataEnd = dataSize = 0;

<          file.seek(filePosition); // JC added Oct 21, 2004

Also, and I don't know if this was intentional, but ReadUnsignedShort is not swapping bytes.
