Re: [Gimp-developer] Re: Plug-ins, menus and user interface
Hi, Shlomi Fish [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: BTW, is it possible to initiate the gimp with a command-line specified GIMP directory? Vim has an option to use such a vimrc and I use it on the PC-Farm to customize it. 'man gimp' is your friend: -g, --gimprc gimprc Use an alternative gimprc instead of the default one. Useful in cases where plugins paths or machine specs may be different. If GIMP can support such a thing, it would make working on it on Win32 much better. And we do intend GIMP to work nicely there, right? It's not really our main focus, but if it works on Win2 too, we don't mind.

It's not really our main focus, but if it works on Win2 too, we don't mind. I thought GIMP 1.3.x (or is it GIMP 1.9.x) aims to be as independant of the GUI library as possible. So, basically, it should be possible to write a Win32 or MFC front-end to it. Or am I wrong? If you ask me, we should make sure GIMP runs nicely on Windows too, in one way or the other. Some people use Windows, and it is usally easier to expose them to GIMP for Windows, than to GIMP on a Linux (or any other UNIX) box. I know of the Win32 port by Tor Lilquivist, but what could be even better is a port with the native Win32 controls. Assuming the GIMP is GUI-independant it should be possible.

I am willing to help out, but not in such an important way. When I volunteered, I was thinking more along the lines of helping to make sure the site is up-to-date, i.e. that it mentions the most recent GIMP releases, does not run a 'montly competition' of which the last installment was in 1999, et cetera. I think this is desperately needed. At least until someone has come up with a working new system, we should fix the worst stuff on the old site As you may imagine, not much maintainance takes place at the moment and I guess we could need some help here. I hope your help will be appreciated (/me kicking [EMAIL PROTECTED]). Updating the current website will certainly help a new website design too since it will most probably base its content on the old site. Unfortunately the web site is held together with some propietary strange brew of elisp code and templates some strange guy once invented (upps, I just remember, that was me). This is for sure part of the problem someone has who just wants to update some parts of the site. While I can't spend a lot of time currently on this stuff, I am willing to help with any problems that may arise. jtl ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
Re: [Gimp-developer] Language settings
Harald Prasse writes: I have The GIMP installed under WIN2000 with Local language settings set to Belgian... I'd like to set it to English though, how do I get it done? The set lang=c in the autoexec.bat doesn't do anything Probably Win2k doesn't use autoexec.bat? Try setting it from the Control Panel (don't remember the exact location where to set environment variables using the GUI in Win2k). setting up a batch file to start th GIMP with that setting doesn't actually start it. PATH problem, DLLs not found? If you use the start command to start gimp, it should use the same Registry magic (the App Paths entry that adds the directory with the DLLs to PATH when running gimp.exe) that Explorer does when you double-click on the GIMP shortcut. If you have just the file path to the gimp.exe in the .bat file, this Registry setting doesn't get used. Anyway, it might be simple to just remove the locale subdirectory from the GIMP installation. --tml ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
[Gimp-developer] The GIMP Webpage
Hi all, having been a lurker to gimp-devel for 2 or 3 years now, I realised that the gimp-webpage is a very delicate topic. :-) So I gave myself a hand and wrote down a list of things I learned to give attention to, when creating big web-projects: http://home.bn-paf.de/smokey/proposal_for_gimp_org.html I hope this list can be of some help and will be the topic of heated discussions. ;-) Aaand I hereby want to offer my help building the new page. thanks, Christoph --- http://home.bn-paf.de/smokey/ ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
Re: [Gimp-developer] The GIMP Webpage
Hi Christoph! So I gave myself a hand and wrote down a list of things I learned to give attention to, when creating big web-projects: http://home.bn-paf.de/smokey/proposal_for_gimp_org.html I think it's a great step in the right direction. The gimp.org discussion ist really not young and hasn't shown any visible results yet. The Gimp User Group has been aiming at redesigning (both content and appearance) of gimp.org for a long while and we would appreciate to see final decisions to start working.

The discussion could go into technical stuff like how do we do this in php or something. The more important problem now is: Who is helping out? Who does the graphics, who the code? Where can we put the stuff? Many loose ends which still have to be closed. Maybe a public Call for volunteers would be of help. Has anybody made good/bad experiences with something like that?

RE: [Gimp-developer] The GIMP Webpage
hi all, for a site with some dynamic content, Zope (www.zope.org) is a platform which is easy to setup and to maintain. I used the Squishdot Product (www.squishdot.org) for www.gimp.de and I am quite happy with that. So if you want to integrate a dynamic slashdot-like discussion forum on the new site, I could volunteer to do that. regards Juergen -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Sven Neumann Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2001 12:11 AM To: Christoph Rauch Cc: Sven Neumann; Michael Spunt; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Gimp-developer] The GIMP Webpage Hi, Christoph Rauch [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Is there a mailinglist for the gimp webpage yet? nope.
