Gimp 2 does not come with help?
Hi, I've just downloaded GIMP 2.2.8. Still the same problem : no help ! How do I change mode from 700 to 755 as you say in your answer. Thanks for your kind help. Joe PS : Gimp does the same as PhotoShop, and costs far less.

When I press F1, the error msg reads : Cannot open « C:\Program Files\GIMP 2.2.8\share\gimp\2.0\help\en\gimp-help.xml ». I checked with the download, seems OK (no bugs in the .ZIP files I extracted to C:\Program Files\GIMP 2.2.8\... ). Where the snag ? I created subfolder: \help\en\, just in case. But still no XML file. What's the connection to FreeBSD? Are you using wine to run the windows binaries? I'm seeking a tutorial I can work with on my PC, just to get the basics, from there I'll set my little grey matter to b become a clever user. Gimp seems fabulous, but I'm just a bug, you know...? Thanks for your help. Some say Grokking the GIMP was a good book. http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/node3.html PS : Would you know a way to securely lock (no cut/no paste; it's amazing how people can be malicius...) a small graphic file (my real [graphic] signature. I need that for Outlook Express. I have no clue what you are talking about, but as I don't run Outlook Express, I probably couldn't help anyway.

You can download it from the gimp website and run configure/make install. Last time I checked it was still very incomplete though. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, I have gimp, version 2.0.0, with WITH_HTML_HELP_BROWSER=yes installed. When I click on Help-Help, I get an empty browser, but also a message pop-up, that says 'Could not open '/usr/X11R6/share/gimp/help/en/gimp-help.xml' for reading: No such file or directory. Is this gimp install incomplete, or do I need another port for the help XML pages of gimp?

I noticed a number of ports are installing directories with permissions 700. You may need to chmod those to 755 to get applications to work.

But the required file, /usr/X11R6/share/gimp/help/en/gimp-help.xml, is not there! The gimp-message box, that tells me this, also says: Please check your installation. So there's something missing after installing the package, isn't it? Rob. On Wed, 2004-04-14 at 05:59, Rob wrote: Hi, I have gimp, version 2.0.0, with WITH_HTML_HELP_BROWSER=yes installed.
