Hi,

 Gimp-Print 4.2.2-pre1, released May 11, 2002, is a prerelease in
 the Gimp-Print 4.2 line.
 [...]
 Gimp-Print 4.2.2-pre1 contains the following major changes over
 Gimp-Print 4.2.1:
 
   1) A new dither algorithm, EvenTone, has been added.  This algorithm
  produces superior results for photographs and other
  continuous-tone images, but in its current form it may not be as
  well suited for solid color images and line art.  This algorithm
  should be considered beta.

will the GIMP plug-in automatically take advantage of this change and
include the new dither algorithm? If I understood the code correctly
this is not the case. If I'm correct, this indicates a design flaw in
the gimp-print library since the list of dither algorithms should be
provided by gimp-print and not being hardcoded to the plug-in. I hope
I'm wrong here.


Salut, Sven

It will automatically pick up the new dither algorithm, with no need
to recompile the GIMP plug-in.
