Some clients of layer_new_from_tiles() need to specify the kind of layer they need; added a GimpImageType parameter for this purpose. Closes #5045. * app/paths_dialog.c paths_dialog_set_default_op() now checks for the existence of the path_dialog before manipulating its internals. Closes #5049;
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 http://bugs.gnome.org/db/pa/lgimp.html for
this).
Have fun,
