This new widget is much nicer, with proper label to document the GUI and also with support to save files or create folders. It also has mnemonic support and the label is put into the same size group as other so that it's nicely aligned. As a consequence, I remove bad support of object arguments with a GFile value. People should just create proper GimpParamSpecFile arguments (also GimpProcedure API now has a function only for such type of file argument). I also remove gimp_procedure_dialog_get_file_chooser() which was only useful when we didn't know what action a file argument was for. Now it's part of the param spec definition. libscriptfu was updated too because SF-DIRNAME arguments don't need special casing anymore. Finally I change gradients-save-as-css to just make use of the new automatic widget creation (more than 60 lines of plug-in code replaced by… 0 lines because it's automatic!). This whole commit is mostly a lot of code removal now that we have proper automatization for file arguments! \o/

GNU Image Manipulation Program
3.0 Release Candidate
------------------------------
This is a release candidate for upcoming version 3.0.0 of GIMP.
This is not considered stable yet, unless testing tell us it is.
Therefore save your work early and often. If you want a stable
version, please use GIMP 2.10 instead.
If you think you found a bug in this version, please report it! We are
at the verge of releasing the next major version of GIMP, so any report
helps.
If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
1. Web Resources
================
GIMP's home page is at:
https://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 latest version of GIMP can be found at:
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
We also have a website dedicated to documentation at:
https://docs.gimp.org/
2. Contributing
===============
GIMP source code can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/
Resources for contributors:
https://developer.gimp.org/
In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:
* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/
3. Discussion Channels
======================
We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:
https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html
For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user)
devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network).
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
irc.us.gimp.org:6667
irc.eu.gimp.org:6667
More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above
"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member.
Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are
also included in that page.
4. Customizing
==============
The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.
You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/shortcutsrc`.
Have fun,
