well, no/yes

i have no idea what the convention is with the majority of mail lists, i
only know of the ones i try to follow.

it has been the way of the people on this list and on the developer list
to send a reply to both the list and the sender since 1998 when i first
joined it.

sometimes i like this convention, sometimes i dont.  right now i like it
as the list mail moves slowly for me and the replies sent to me and not
the list get here more quickly.

back then the gimp users and the gimp developers were all linux in
origin so i always thought it was one of those linux curmudgeon ways.  i
could be wrong though.  i try to do it to not irritate the old
developers and users, out of respect.

anyone can feel free to correct my understanding of this convention

yes/no

hit 'Reply to All' and then delete all but the list addr.  Your post
was seen/answered from a posting on the list.  Kind of obvious that
the poster *reads* the list and will see your reply there.  No need
for two copies of the mail and the extra traffic.  Netiquette .

Next time, instead of hitting reply, hit Reply to All or something 
similar.  It will send it to the individual AND the list.  Hope this helps!

Uuups, I accidntally sent this to Sven only (because this 
list for some reason not understood by me is set up so that 
a "reply" does not go to the list).

Ok - I just searched for man pages in my Gimp 2.2
installation and could not find them.
Might this be because I run Gimp on Windows?
I have looked into Help in Gimp, but found nothing ...
Context help (Shift F1) on the Brush resulted in
"Appendix C. Eeek! a help is missing"

I tried many things - none of them worked.
Maybe this devicerc does not work on Windows?
I still look for a solution to get a default brush different 
from the one in the default gimp config (I want Circle(1) 
but always get Circle(11))

GIMP comes with a couple of man-pages. gimprc(5) has the answer to
your question. Please note that if you have a devicerc in your
~/.gimp-2.2 directory, the settings stored in is file will override
the default brush / pattern / gradient. This is to allow for setting
up different presets for different input devices.
