Re: PDL (Perl Data Language)
You can get PDL from any Central Perl Archive Network (CPAN) site. http://www.cpan.org http://search.cpan.org will let you search for individual modules. Sorry, I don't know about XJT. Perhaps freshmeat.net could help you with that one?

GIMP 1.1.26 hangs at "query plug-ins"?
Hallo everybody. I just did a full install of Helix GNOME onto my Debian Potato box, which took GIMP from 1.0.something-or-other to 1.1.26. I had unstable lines in /etc/apt/sources.list so that apt-get could upgrade the dependencies it needed from Woody to install the task-helix-gnome package. The install succeeded with no errors. On running GIMP 1.1.26 for the first time, it did the usual generation of ~/.gimp-1.1/* but hangs at Plug-Ins. Running it verbosely from the command line, it hangs when "query plug-ins: /usr/lib/gimp/1.1/plug-ins/pdbbrowse.py" runs. I haven't been able to fathom why. Suggestions as to what I've done wrong or misplaced?

displaying images in a directory
Hello, I am looking for a open function with displaying of the images in a directory. I believe that this exists but I am not sure! (I have found this functionnality in GraphicConverter for MacOS)
Fog
I made some pretty good fog on a picture by making a transparent layer, creating circles, filling them with white, doing a major Gaussian blur, and then reducing the transparency on that layer until they were just barely visible. Simple but worked very well to create different intensities and different blotchiness. Cheers! Jim Clark

IIRC Tigert (http://tigert.gimp.org/) had a tutorial where he created clouds, fog or something like that. I think it was a tutorial for a meeting, expo or whatever the name.

One of the features I sorely miss from photoshop was the "Info" window. In addition to showing the sizes of selections it gives you the RGB value of whatever is under the cursor. It even shows before/after values when making adjustments and corrections. Screenshot: http://www.obscurasite.com/images/screengrabs/info-hist.jpg In Gimp you can get the RGB values with the eyedropper tool but it goes away when you select another tool. It would be nice to have it around all the time and even better if it did before/after values so we can make more precise color corrections. Also note down in the corner the "history" / "actions" window. We have multiple undo and redo but is there something history and actions has in addition? (I started using Gimp before photoshop had that history stuff ;-) It might be cool to have a "progressive undo / redo" so you can partially back out of something. The workaround I use for this now is to duplicate one or more layers, do something like a color correction or filter, then adjust transparency to blend the modified layer with the original. Having a "procedural undo" would be able to accomplish this without the additional step of creating a layer. (heh... I'm lazy) Thanks in advance for your consideration. (and I know we are in a "freeze" so I don't expect to see any new features any time soon) -- Jon Winters http://www.obscurasite.com/ "Everybody loves the GIMP!" http://www.gimp.org/

Magnify
Hi. Got a little question, it doesn't really affect gimp as it could be any 3rd party software, but it would be awesome with a thingie like this built into gimp... Remember the old days? Drawing your pixels with Deluxe Paint on the Amiga/Atari? Those programs had (at least the atariversion) a nice little feature, a realtime magnifier. It worked like a window/dedicated part of the screen which followed the mouse on your canvas and magnified the part you were pointing at, so you could draw with your airbrush in 1x1 mode while watching the pixels at a lower scale at the same time, how many times haven't you done some serious shading and realized that it looks wierd when resizing back to normal scale? The magnify-app that comes with X is something like what i want, except that i want it to refresh continuously. Anyone heard of a util like this or know anyone who's capable of coding one? I know that there's a whole lot of people who'd use it. Just a quick thought. again. Admit that it would rock. .. tobbe | www.phatsidedesign.com

Working with the keyboard instead of chosing each tool by hand(mouse) is a great time-saver anyway. (Just popup the menu, hold the pointer over the function you want to change keybinding for and then press the key you'd like to use in the future). I rarely touch the tool-panel anymore after modifying gimp to work just like the old photoshop keybindings, which i'm used to. just a tip. maybe unneccessary. maybe helpful. who knows. what I'D want is gimp to show the selection-size all the time and not just while selecting something, i hate to reselect everything to see how big something is (there might be a solution for this, please help me! =) __ tobbe|www.phatsidedesign.com
Suggestion to toolbar buttons placement
Hello, GIMP: what a great tool ! I am just an user but can i make a suggestion ? There's 25 buttons on the Gimp Toolbar and sometime, it's not easy to find the good one in all these buttons. I suggest to arrange buttons by "groups", separated with spaces, to respect "7 items" ergonomy standard - selection buttons:Rectangle, Circle, Freehand selection, magic wand, bezier tool,intelligent scissor, selection mover - "transformations": crop tool, transformation tool, mirror tool - drawing tools: text tool, fill tool, gradient tool, pencil, brush, rubber, aerograph, ink tool, - rectification tools: stamp tool, blur tool, ink tool, multiply tool, finger tool - "gadget" tool (tool that don't modify image but give info on image):magnifier, compass, color picker I think with that, each button must be easier to find.

Your best bet is to update using Mandrake rpms which are optimized for performance on your system ! ftp.atik.ciril.fr in the pub/mandrake-developer/cooker/mandrake/rpms folder (or similar) is one place to look for them.
