I recently became a gimp user and have the following suggestion for an addition to the gimp man page that would have saved me some time. I have Version 1.0.4 of gimp. The ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES section needs to include GIMP_DATADIR and GIMP_DIRECTORY. I learned by reading source code that I need to set GIMP_DATADIR to the location of my share/gimp subdirectory (since I don't have The Gimp installed in the compiled-in default location). I looked in the man page first for this information, since it's usually there. I also saw in the source code GIMP_DIRECTORY is similar, but I couldn't quite figure out what it's for. Also, in this version of the man page, there is a reference to http://www.wilberworks.com/bugs.html, which doesn't exist. -- Bryan Henderson Phone 415-505-3367 Olympia, Washington
