Hi, I'm picking up on an older thread here since there's some good news on the MacOS X subject that should be shared. Since this topic was brought up last, Yosh added a POSIX shared memory implementation that is used on Darwin. Recently GIMP-2.0pre packages appeared for fink (http://mirror.student.iastate.edu/) and today I've been told that GIMP-2.0pre2 has found its way into darwinports (http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/). What I heard so far these packages work flawlessly and this means that we can say that MacOS X is a fully supported platform for GIMP-2.0. Thanks to everyone who helped to make this happen. Sven
