 Thank-you for your reply to my request for help.  I read what you wrote and

 GIMP Animation Package for GIMP 2.6; nor do I find appropriate GIMP Help 
 files that I could install on the workstations.  Of course, there is always 
 on-line help.

That's somewhat true. I myself use GAP 2.4 with GIMP 2.6, and it works
okay for me.
AFAIK the package I linked is what you'd install to get this setup on
Windows systems.

First, you download the right files.
gimp-gap-2.4.0.tar.bz2 is almost certainly a source code distribution,
not binaries. Probably both of the files you downloaded are unsuitable
for your architecture.

For GIMP-GAP, you probably want the file linked to here:

[Gimp-user] Some questions about installing GIMP Animation Package and GIMP Help on Windows workstations

2009-04-18 Thread Alchemie foto\grafiche




 
 I have downloaded  gimp-help 2.4.2.tar  file
 but not quite sure where this 
 should be extracted / opened to so that Gimp picks the
 help files up--
 Regards,Richard
 


In both case you get the wrong installer.

As for Gap the only official Windows installer is outdated from years, from 
when gimp 2.2 popped out,and will never work in combination with Gimp 2.4 or 2.6

But i am mirroring 
(here
http://photocomix-resources.deviantart.com/art/GAP2-4-For-Gimp2-4-windows-76889004
plus you will need this 2 files
http://photocomix-resources.deviantart.com/art/Gap2-4-BugFix-Files-77466242 , 
how to is included and in the comment )

a less official but much more updated GAP installer, that work well with gimp 
2.4 and kind of work with gimp 2.6 (where are problem on 2.6 with Filter all 
layers and Frame modify-apply filter, problem solved in the last SVN version, 
but nobody compiled that for windows till now

Shortly most GAP function will work even used with GImp 2.6 but for best 
compatibility should be instead used with gimp 2.4


about the help you look on the wrong place you should search with keyword as   
Gimp For Windows Sourceforge gimp help .exe ...
there are several versions but all as .exe or .zip, if not are for other OS 
then Win

Then i do not know if for
