Re: installing GIMP on OS X.

[Dennis Moser]

GIMP happens to be one of the few tools available right now that will 
allow full editing of PNG graphics, better than what Photoshop is 
capable of doing, which only handles PNG graphics through a plugin. 
It isn't just for megageeks, but it IS the only such tool for OS 
X...and yes, it IS a pain in the A to get running on 
Jaguar...especially since it REQUIRES X11 to function.



Can somebody guide me through this?
Are you really SURE you want/need GIMP?  Why?  What are you planning 
to do with it?

Gimp, and X11, is generally for megageeks who spend most their time 
in the command-line and want to play with X for some arcane reason. 
It is not for beginners and OS X's Aqua is much much better.

Sorry if this email sounds kinda vague and confusing.  I'm just 
very  confused.
Then reassess if you really want Gimp.
