Please note I have removed my signature from the bottom as this email as Patrick Shanahan seemed really upset by me not deleting this previously. He was also upset by me posting in the wrong sequence of the chain. My apologies since I am ignorant of how to change this. For the most part I find this forum really friendly and helpful. ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
