 What is wrong with rulers?

Nothing, but I guess the idea was to make things nicer. A protector
(to avoid scratches in the monitor) and a caliber (right word?) are
fine for me. :]

Just in case somebody was wondering if the feature was completly
missing, the current Gimp 1.2 has such system under Preferences /
Monitor / Calibrate. It just looks too Spartan.

I am asking, because it would seem to me that somebody who cares 
enough for their pixels to be perfect will not mind going out to buy 
a ruler. 

And of course, once you've got the ruler, you can make your own 
standard size paper.

Hi,

 Also, it is nice to unpack a new gimp and be able to just reach out to
 your desk (maybe) and get it configured and working right then. A lazy
 LUser like me would like that. The gimp is LUser friendly.

what kind of desks are that where there is no ruler, but credit cards,
photos, film, CDs etc.? I guess we will run into a lot of trouble 
trying to find a suitable item that is available on everyone's desk 
and is guaranteed to have the exact same size no matter where you live. 

If you ask me, people should spend the money they save by using Gimp 
to buy a ruler. Actually I do not think that anyone who cares about 
her images having the exact screen resolution does not own a ruler.


Salut, Sven
