This is my second release of Gimp 2.6.11 for AmiCygnix. GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distribu- ted program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It has many capabilities. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an image format converter, etc. GIMP is expandable and extensible. It is designed to be augmented with plug-ins and extensions to do just about anything. New in this release ------------------- * The promised keyboard support did not work. Fixed. * The menu shortcuts did not work. Also fixed. * Seven new to python plug-ins converted Script-Fu scripts: - carve-it.py - chrome-it.py - coffee.py - distress-selection.py - fuzzyborder.py - old-photo.py - slide.py * The documentation was revised. Several python plug-ins do need other plug-ins, which are included in the optional plug-in packages. This is now explicitly listed. * A new splash picture in Amiga style. Thanks to Thomas Blatt! New in the first release ------------------------ * New version 2.6.11 with many improvements, for example the new GEGL graphics system. * The internal loaders were enhanced and two new formats were added. While saving in JPEG, PNG or TIFF format you can choose now the compression rate. * Some of the Script-Fu scripts are now available as python plug-ins. (see below) * Compiled with GTK+ 2.24. * New version 2.7.2 of the Python package for Gimp python plug-ins. * Keyboard layouts that do not conform to ISO-8859-1 standard (eg Polish or Greek keyboards) are now better supported. This includes support for dead keys. For a complete support of dead keys, the installation of AmiCygnix 1.3 (or better) is mandatory! (did not work) Internal loaders and savers --------------------------- This version of Gimp contains several internal loader and saver formats. Because of this, you can load and save foreign picture formats, even if the external loader plug-ins are missing. The original loader plug-ins will be available in a separate package, because the amount of data is too high. At the moment all programs are linked stati- cally on AmiCygnix. Many plug-ins do have a filesize of 14 - 15 MB because of this. Internal loaders: - XCF - BMP - GIF - ICNS - ICO (Windows-Icon) - IFF-ILBM - JPEG - PCX - PNG - PNM - QTIF - RAS - TGA - TIFF - WBMP - XBM - XPM Internal savers: - XCF - BMP - JPEG - PNG - TIFF The advantage of the internal loaders is the higher speed compared to the external plug-ins. On the other hand the external plug-ins do have more features and more file formats are available. Included (external) plug-ins ---------------------------- Important: To reduce the size of this package, only some selected plug-ins are included. Additional plug-ins will be available in separate packages. At the moment all programs are linked statically on AmiCygnix. Many plug-ins do have a filesize of 14 - 15 MB because of this.
