Hi, to bring this year to a happy end, here's another development release of The GIMP: ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v1.3/v1.3.11/ The gimprc file format changed with this release. Although the changes are small, we don't provide backward compatibility with the old format. If you installed earlier versions of the 1.3 series, you are advised to remove the /.gimp-1.3 directory and perform a fresh user installation. The system-wide gimprc in ${prefix}/etc/gimp/1.3/ documents the new file format. The gimprc man-page has not yet been updated. Here's the list of changes for this release: Overview of Changes in GIMP 1.3.11 ================================== - Allow to stroke bezier curves with the vectors tool [Simon] - Added a first draft of a display filter that simulates color-deficient vision [Mitch, Sven] - Added an optional menubar per display [Mitch] - Added PDB functions needed by GAP [Wolfgang Hofer, Sven] - Updated the Win32 build system [Tor Lillqvist, Hans Breuer] - Factored common code out of a number of plug-ins [Maurits] - Use g_rand* functions whereever random numbers are needed [Bolsh] - GimpPressionist plug-in cleaned up [Maurits] - Finally landed the new gimprc code based on GimpConfig [Sven, Mitch] - Added widgets for views on object properties [Mitch] - Reimplemented the preferences dialog using GimpConfig [Mitch] - Transform tool cleanup [Mitch] - Modify the environment of plug-ins according to files installed with the plug-ins.
