I'll have a look at it i would appreciate your opinions about it. i actually could edit that pygimp documentation without installing anything in addition to the software itself. i think ircd can handle the stuff that is needed to convert it. http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/ if the people in charge don't show up to do something soon, i will get the sgml and use one of the gimp computers to convert them myself. ugh? speak with us, please :) i went to the rapha-awful school of volunteerism. i am now watching how google messes up things that are messed up. it is so much easier to just run this software and do the dirty little conversion and make this stuff so that people can use it. feel free to write me in private if you have problems with me making this conversion. carol ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
