Re: [Gimp-user] How do I change text color in existing object?
snip I hope that helps, May I take this opportunity to add another thing. When replying to an item always use 'Reply to list' or the equivalent and not 'Reply to all'. Because I have my client set to sort into various mail boxes and no doubt others also do, 'Replies to list' pops the mail into my GIMP box whereas 'Reply to all' pops the reply into my personal box. I know the reply also appears on the list but my response does not. Norman ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

You should only be using the bogus 'forum' interface on gimpusers.com if you want to annoy and confuse some of the other people using this mailing list (which is what it is, not a forum! The fact you are almost certainly seeing this message through the 'forum' doesn't mean anything to the contrary! The 'forum' is simply a piece of software which presents this mailing list as if it were truly a forum.) I have to type in the two word display to prevent automatic spam postings. So, am I going about it wrongly? Yes. If you want to be respectful of the people posting here, to this mailing list (gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu) , then please stop using the 'forum' interface on gimpusers.com and instead, genuinely subscribe to this mailing list.

All the GIMP mailing lists have a configuration problem, in that when I reply to a message it goes to the sender and not to the list. After a while when I waiting for my message to appear and obviously it does not, I remember ough, this is the GIMP list, damn, so I have to redirect the message with the address manually entered. The GIMP lists are the only ones from those where I am subscribed (~15) that behaves in this way. Perhaps because the Sender address includes something with bounces and not actually the list address ? I don't know, but it is annoying and annoys the receiver when I first relplay to him and then again to the list.

If so, then what is the purpose of the forum ? Who has interest that some people can (tehnically) be non-respectful of the people posting here ? (why is not the forum simply erased then ?) You seem to have the idea that the forum was created by some of the same people who maintain this mailing list. This is very far from the truth -- Some random person, who has hardly posted at all on this mailing list, just said one day I've set up forums on gimpusers.com that provide an interface to the GIMP mailing lists, hope you like, tell me what you think. A few of the core GIMP developers objected quite strongly, and later indicated that the best thing would be to take it down altogether. Their objections were ignored. The purpose of the forum, I cannot directly comment on; although I'd guess that it aimed to make posting easier. It achieved that, at the cost of the confusion and inconvenience of both the forum users and the people genuinely subscribed to this mailing list. If anyone only wanted to read the gimp-user mailing list, the GMANE archives would be perfectly adequate (with the advantage that they represent the emails as.. emails rather than forum threads/posts ; proper threading et al) One problem that I haven't even mentioned yet is people thinking the mailing list is a message board. This might seem unproblematic, but there are significant difference in etiquette between message boards and mailing lists, and the functional differences between the gimpusers.com forums and this mailing list have already caused problems in this area. Overall, the forum simply causes more problems than it solves. Whose interest it is in (this is not a technical issue, this is a matter of misrepresentation and confusion effecting readers and posters accessing this list both in the approved way and through the forums) -- I hope that is evident from earlier parts of this email. Re: the reply-to issue: I have to agree, this has occasionally bit me. OTOH, what exactly do you expect your mailer to do when you choose 'reply' rather than 'reply to all'? It seems to me sensible that 'reply' should reply to the original author, rather than all people who saw the mail -- that's what 'reply to all' is for, right? If this distinction does not exist for many of the mailing lists you subscribe to, I have to say that this is an inconsistency in the opposite direction.

I am expecting to reply to the Reply-To: field, if existing. If not, to the From: field. The GIMP mailing lists misses the Reply-To: field, causing a lot of annoyances and sometimes delays (delays when realising after several hours that my message was sent wrongly to the author instead to the mailing list). For a mailing lists (generally), for me the Reply to All is only useful if for some reason I want to reply off-list to the sender, in which case I copy-paste-delete some recipient fields in order to particularize the destination. But this is the exception, not the rule. Long time ago I used a very good mailer program for its time, PMMail, which had a very useful feature: a popup message was triggered in case the From: and Reply-To: was different, asking me to whom I want to actually reply. Unfortunately that program is now dead (and the latest versions lacks UTF-8 encoding as well as threading based on Message-ID).

So now, I have to rename the file before starting Gimp, then rename the file back before starting Systran. This is not absolutely fabulous. Is there a better way? File a bug with Systran. They shouldn't place arbitrary DLL files into system directories. Their own program directory is a better place for them.
