Sun Jan 10 22:41:51 GMT 1999 Andy Thomas <alt@picnic.demon.co.uk> New * app/dialog_handler.c * app/dialog_handler.h Changed * app/disp_callbacks.c * app/gradient_select.c * app/tools.c * app/interface.c * app/patterns.c * app/gimpbrushlist.c * app/palette.c * app/layers_dialog.c * app/devices.c * app/errorconsole.c Can now hide/show all main dialogs using the TAB key in any window. However.... there is a bug in gtk that causes the Gimp the crash if you show and then hide a lot of dialogs (eg if you have all dialogs visible and press the TAB key repeatedly). I have email-ed an example to the gtk bug list. Also I can't seem to be able to catch the SHIFT-TAB combination (suggestions welcome ;-) so the first press of the tab hide all dialogs the second press reshows only the toolbox and the third press reshows all. Comments please if you find this behaviour non-intuitive.
The GIMP: the GNU Image Manipulation Program
--------------------------------------------
This is an unstable release of the GIMP, intended for developers only.
For production use, please use the 1.0.x series.
The GIMP's home page is at
http://www.gimp.org
Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there.
The automated plug-in registry is located at
http://registry.gimp.org
There you can get the latest versions of plug-ins using a convenient
forms-based interface.
We have several mailing lists dedicated to GIMP user and development
discussion. To subscribe, send mail to
majordomo@scam.xcf.berkeley.edu
and in the body of the message put
subscribe <list-name> your@email.address
substituting <list-name> for "gimp-user" or "gimp-developer" (without
the quotes, of course) depending on the list you want to subscribe
to. The mailing list archives can be found at
http://www.findmail.com/listsaver/gimp-developer/
http://www.findmail.com/listsaver/gimp-user/
Gimp-user is a mailing list dedicated to user problems, hints and
tips, discussion of cool effects, etc. Gimp-developer is oriented to
GIMP core and plug-in developers. Most people will only want to be
subscribed to gimp-user.
And finally, for the real junkies, there is an IRC channel devoted to
the GIMP :-) On Byxnet (a private mostly-GIMP network) there is #gimp.
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the Byxnet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
You can customize the look of the interface quite a bit my editing the
~/.gimp/gtkrc file. A sample file, gtkrc.forest, is included (Thanks to
Tuomas Kuosmanen)
Included is a set of keybindings similar to those in Adobe Photoshop (tm).
You can find them in the ps-menurc file. To use them, copy this file to
~/.gimp/menurc
We sincerely hope you enjoy the program. Please report problems to
bugs@gimp.org. Before reporting a problem, you may want to see if someone
else has already did (check the http://www.wilberworks.com/bugs.cgi for
this).
Have fun,
