DESCRIPTION
The GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is used
to edit and manipulate images. It can load and save a
variety of image formats and can be used to convert between
formats.
Gimp can also be used as a paint program. It features a set
of drawing and painting tools such as airbrush, clone, pen-
cil, and paint brush. Painting and drawing tools can be
applied to an image with a variety of paint modes. It also
offers an extensive array of selection tools like rectangle,
ellipse, fuzzy select, bezier select, intelligent scissors,
and select by color.
Gimp offers a variety of plugins that perform a variety of
image manipulations. Examples include bumpmap, edge detect,
gaussian blur, and many others.
In addition, Gimp has several scripting extension which
allow for advanced non-interactive processing and creation
of images.
OPTIONS
The gimp accepts the following options:
-h, --help
Display a list of all commandline options.
-v, --version
Output the version info.
-b, --batch <commands>
Execute the set of <commands> non-interactively. The
set of <commands> is typically in the form of a
script that can be executed by one of the Gimp
scripting extensions.
-g, --gimprc <gimprc>
Use an alternative gimprc instead of the default
one. Useful in cases where plugins paths or machine
specs may be different.
-i, --no-interface
Run without a user interface.
-r, --restore-session
Try to restore saved session.
-d, --no-data
Do not load patterns, gradients, palettes, or
brushes. Often useful in non-interactive situations
where startup time is to be minimized.
--verbose
Show startup messages.
--no-shm
Do not use shared memory between GIMP and its plu-
gins. Instead of using shared memory, GIMP will send
the data via pipe. This will result in slower per-
formance than using shared memory.
--no-xshm
Do not use the X Shared Memory extension. If GIMP is
being displayed on a remote X server, this probably
needs to be enabled. Also useful for any X server
that doesn't properly support the X shared memory
extension. This will result in slower performance
than with X shared memory enabled.
--display display
Use the designated X display.
-s, --no-splash
Do not show the splash screen.
-S, --no-splash-image
Do not show the splash screen image as part of the
splash screen.
--debug-handlers
Enable debugging signal handlers.
-c, --console-messages
Do not popup dialog boxes on errors or warnings.
Print the messages on the console instead.
--enable-stack-trace {never|query|always}
If a stack-trace should be generated in case of
fatal signals.
--system-gimprc <gimprc>
Use an alternate system gimprc file.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides
the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER
property.
FILES
Gimp's data files are stored in ${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2,
where ${prefix} is set on install, but is typically
/usr/local. Gimp's system-wide configuration files are
stored in /opt/gnome/etc/gimp/1.2. Most gimp configuration
is read in from the user's init file, $HOME/.gimp-
1.2/gimprc. The system wide equivalent is in
/opt/gnome/etc/gimprc. The system wide file is parsed first
and the user gimprc can override the system settings.
/opt/gnome/etc/gimprc_user is the default gimprc placed in
users' home directories the first time gimp is run.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/gtkrc - users set of gimp-specific GTK con-
fig settings. Options such as widget color and fonts sizes
can be set here.
/opt/gnome/etc/gimp/1.2/gtkrc - sytem wide default set of
gimp-specific GTK config settings.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/ideas - lists all images that have been
opened or saved using Gimp.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/menurc - user's set of keybindings.
/opt/gnome/etc/gimp/1.2/menurc - system wide set of keybind-
ings.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/parasiterc - Description of all available
gimp parasites. This is file is recreated everytime gimp
starts up.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/sessionrc - This file takes session-specific
info (that is info, you want to keep between two gimp-
sessions). You are not supposed to edit it manually, but of
course you can do. This file will be entirely rewritten
every time you quit the gimp. If this file isn't found,
defaults are used.
/opt/gnome/etc/gimp/1.2/unitrc - default user unit database.
It contains the unit definitions for centimeters, meters,
feet, yards, typographic points and typographic picas and is
placed in users home directories the first time the gimp is
ran.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/unitrc - This file contains your user unit
database. You can modify this list with the unit editor. You
are not supposed to edit it manually, but of course you can
do. This file will be entirely rewritten every time you
quit the gimp.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/plug-ins - location of user installed plu-
gins.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/pluginrc - plugin initialization values are
stored here. This file is parsed on startup and regenerated
if need be.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/modules - location of user installed
modules.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/tmp - default location that gimp uses as
temporary space.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/brushes - system wide brush files.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/brushes - user created and installed brush
files. These files are in the .gbr (gimp brush) format.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/generated_brushes - Brushes generated and
saved from the brush dialog. These files are in the .vbr
(gimp vector brush) format.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/curves - Curve profiles and presets as saved
from the Curves tool.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/gimpressionist - Presets and user created
brushes and papers are stored here.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/levels - Level profiles and presets as saved
from the Levels tool.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/palettes - the system wide palette
files. The files are copied to the user palettes directory
when gimp is first ran to allow the user to modify the
palettes. This directory is not searched for palettes by
default.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/palettes - copies of the system palette
files as well as user created and modified palette files.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/patterns - basic set of patterns
for use in gimp.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/patterns - user created and installed gimp
pattern files. This files are in the .pat format.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/gradients - standard system wide
set of gradient files.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/gradients - user created and installed gra-
dient files.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/scripts - system wide directory of
scripts used in Script-Fu and other scripting extensions.
$HOME/.gimp-1.2/scripts - user created and installed
scripts.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/gflares - system wide directory

$HOME/.gimp-1.2/gflares - user created and installed gflare
files.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/gfig - system wide directory used

in the Gimp about dialog.
${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2/tips/gimp_tips.txt - list of tips
displayed in the "Tip of the Day" dialog box. At the same
place you will find files with tips in other languages.

SUGGESTIONS AND BUG REPORTS
Any bugs found should be reported to the Gimp Developer
mailing list at gimp-developer@xcf.berkeley.edu or you may
want to make use of the online bug-tracking system available
on the web at http://bugs.gnome.org/db/pa/lgimp.html or sub-
mit a bug report to the system via
http://www.xach.com/gimp/news/bugreport.html
Before reporting bugs, please check to see if the bug is
mentioned in the FAQ's or the mailing list archive. See the
section on Other Info for locations of these.
When reporting Gimp bugs, it is important to include a reli-
able way to reproduce the bug, version number of Gimp (and
probably GTK), OS name and version, and any relevant
hardware specs. It is also very important to include as much
info as possible about the Xserver the problem was found on
including at least server name, the visual, and the bit
depth.
If a bug is causing a crash, it is very useful if a stack
trace can be provided. And of course, patches to rectify the
bug are even better.
OTHER INFO
The canonical place to find GIMP info is at
http://www.gimp.org/. Here you can find links to just about
every other gimp site, tutorials, data sets, mailing list
archives, and more.
There is also a Gimp User Manual available at
http://manual.gimp.org/ that goes into much more detail
about the interactive use of Gimp.
The latest version of Gimp and the gtk libs is always avail-
able at ftp://ftp.gimp.org/.
