GNU Image Manipulation Program
|
|
2.99 Development Branch
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is an unstable development release, an intermediate state on the
|
|
way to the next stable release: GIMP 3.0. GIMP 2.99 may or may not do
|
|
what you expect. 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 make sure that it
|
|
hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is
|
|
still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet.
|
|
|
|
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.

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
|
|
|
|
Links to several archives of the mailing lists are included in that page.
|
|
|
|
Gimp-user-list is a mailing list dedicated to user problems, hints and
|
|
tips, discussion of cool effects, etc. Gimp-developer-list is oriented
|
|
to GIMP core and plug-in developers. Gimp-gui-list is for discussing
|
|
about GIMP interface to improve user experience. Most people will only
|
|
want to be subscribed to gimp-user-list. If you want to help develop
|
|
GIMP, the gimp-developer mailing list is a good starting point; if you
|
|
want to help with GUI design, the gimp-gui list is where you want to
|
|
subscribe.
|
|
|
|
Other discussion channels can be listed on this page when they are
|
|
moderated by a team member, such as forums.
|
|
|
|
Finally, for the real junkies, there are IRC channels devoted to GIMP.
|
|
On GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network) there is #gimp.
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
|
|
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/menurc`.
