This covers, exactly, one of my biggest problems with the recent Gimp.

I agree here, as well. > Personally, the new gtk file choser widget is the number one reason I try not > to use gtk apps. Gimp is the _only_ GTK app that I use. The only other non-KDE GUI applications I use on a regular basis (at home on Linux) are Mozilla (but only when I want to use Google Maps, otherwise I use Konqueror) and xview. (Well, there are games, too, but most are SDL-based.) Another data point: my wife was happily using GNOME 1.2 and when we upgraded here to GNOME 2.0, it only lasted about a day. I asked if she'd like to try KDE, since it seemed to make more sense. She's been using it ever since. (She uses Gimp a lot, as well as Firefox and Gthumb. I'll have to ask what her feelings are on the recent file chooser interface in Gimp.) -- -bill! Linux vs Windows studies can be divided into: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1.
