A question about TIFF's comment area
Hi, You know TIFF format has a comment area. So you can write your comments in this area at the time of saving a image by TIFF format. I'd like to write down a history of processing applied to the image onto this comment area automatically or semiautomatically . If you know any way of doing this or similar things, please let me know. thanks, KASAO Atsushi Tokyo Kougei Univ. Department of Design http://www.t-kougei.ac.jp [EMAIL PROTECTED]

While rpm is a quick ways to install software (when and if it works), the slow and usually safer way for perl is to use CPAN. Just enter: perl -MCPAN -eshell And follow the menu. After that you should have a prompt like this: cpan Just enter "install PDL" at this prompt and chances are high that it works out of the box. If it doesn't you can use "look PDL" (enters the shell) and edit the file "perldl.conf" to your liking, followed by: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install -- -==- | ==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] |e| -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |

The tiff plug-in saves the image comment. Search for something like
"attaching parasites to an image" and the description of gimp-comment in
docs/parasites.txt.
in perl you could do something like this (mostly pseudocode):
$comment = $image-parasite_find("gimp-comment")-data;
$comment .= "date: text\n";
$image-parasite_attach(new Parasite "gimp-comment",
PARASITE_PERSISTENT,
$comment);

Gimp::Net::gimp_main();
Hello, do you know, what's wrong when my perl and Perl-Server says: 966258177: accepted unix connection hilite: required callback 'net' not found (ERROR) 966258177: closing connection 11 (3 requests in 0 seconds) in the moment of execution of line Gimp::Net::gimp_main(); (in script "hilite" by Giray Devlet)?

grays black - color
Hello, I am trying to find out how to convert gray colors including black into for example red color but have no success. I know I can select with fuzzy selection tool but the problem is, I have a black shape and gray areas that are used as antialising, so I want to convert it all like it does Hue/Saturation but, Hue/Saturation does not works on Black and Gray colors, why is this? Thanks in advance Nikolai
Re: grays black - color
Hi, There are several ways to do what you want... You can create a layer over your image, set the layer on top's Mode to Multiply and fill that top layer completely with Red. This will give you an image that's palette goes from black-to-red-to-white... Or, instead of the Multiply mode, try Overlay (which gives a better effect). However, if you want to make your image so it's palette is pure red to white, then try this method: 1) Copy your greyscale image (Ctrl+C or Edit-Copy) 2) Go to the Channels tab in the Layers dialog. 3) Create a new channel (with default values). 4) Select this channel (and make sure the Red,Green,Blue are unselected). 5) Paste your image into the channel (Ctrl+V or Edit-Paste) 6) Right click on the channel we created and choose Alpha to Selection 7) Go back to the Layers tab 7) Make two layers (the top layer will be transparent, and the bottom will be pure White) Also make your image's layer invisble 8) Select the top layer 10) Choose red from the palette, and apply a bucket fill to the selection. (If it doesn't look right, invert the selection by pressing Ctrl+I or Select-Invert) That's it...rathert hen your image now being black to white in palette, it will be red to white in palette. Hope this helps...if it doesn't, then maybe I'll write up a tutorial for my site. =) Bye! -- Gautam N.

Re: grays black - color
Go to Image - Colors - Curves Change [Value] to the different color channels, and move the ends of the curve around until you get what you want.

Re: The GIMP v1.1.24 Installation Saga Continues.....
hi, checking for gtk-config... /usr/bin/gtk-config checking for GTK - version = 1.2.8... *** An old version of GTK+ (1.2.6) was found. *** You need a version of GTK+ newer than 1.2.8. The latest version of *** GTK+ is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org. *** *** If you have already installed a sufficiently new version, this error *** probably means that the wrong copy of the gtk-config shell script is *** being found. The easiest way to fix this is to remove the old version *** of GTK+, but you can also set the GTK_CONFIG environment to point to the *** correct copy of gtk-config. (In this case, you will have to *** modify your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf *** so that the correct libraries are found at run-time)) configure: error: Test for GTK failed. See the file 'INSTALL' for help. [root@localhost gimp-1.1.24]# ;-) well, it tries to help you as much as it can (without getting overly technical!) firstly, you need to make sure that all of your libraries are properly linked. ldconfig -a is the command to run. secndly, you dont want /usr/lib to appear twice in your ld.so.conf file. that can mess things up (and slow down library searches!) FINALLY, are you SURE that the new gtk is in /usr/lib? have you checked under /usr/local/lib ? if its there, then add this path to your ld.so.conf and then run ldconfig -a again. hint: run 'updatedb' as root. it will take a while, but will build a directory database of your system. then, to find files on your machine, you can type locate filename-that-i-want and it'll find that file - with path. ideal for debugging problems such as this!! good luck!! alan
Re: The GIMP v1.1.24 Installation Saga Continues.....
hi, Got any ideas about this ? perl is the reason why I am going through all of this heartache - so I can get to the perl plug-ins (esp. perlotine). my advice is to get the full Perl 5.6 tarball and install that. alan
Printing on Custom-sized Papers?
