It is advised that you +uninstall them before installing GIMP 2.10. If you want to keep your +older GIMP 2.x installation in parallel to GIMP 2.10, you have to +choose a separate prefix which is not in your default library search +path. Otherwise your previous GIMP installation will start to use the +new libraries. You have been warned. + +If you think you found a bug in this version, please make sure that it +hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is +still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet. + +If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file HACKING. For +detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL. + + +1. Web Resources +================ + +GIMP's home page is at: + + https://www.gimp.org/ + +Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation, +tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there. + +The latest version of GIMP can be found at: + + https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ + +We also have a website dedicated to documentation at: + + https://docs.gimp.org/ + + +2. Contributing +=============== + +GIMP source code can be found at: + + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/ + +Resources for contributors: + + https://developer.gimp.org/ + +In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some +articles of particular interest for newcomers could be: + +* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/ +* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/ +* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/ + + +3. Discussion Channels +====================== + +We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and +development discussion. There is more info at: + + https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html + +For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user) +devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network). +Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are: + + irc.gimp.org:6667 + irc.us.gimp.org:6667 + irc.eu.gimp.org:6667 + +More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above +"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member. +Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are +also included in that page. + + +4. Customizing +============== + +The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK app +by editing the ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file or by using "themes" (ready-made +customizations). For downloadable themes and further details, see +http://art.gnome.org/themes/gtk2 . Additionally, GIMP reads the file +~/.config/GIMP/2.10/gtkrc so you can have settings that only apply to GIMP. + +Included is a set of keybindings similar to those in Adobe Photoshop. +You can find them in the ps-menurc file. To use them, copy this file +to ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/menurc. You can also manually change the keybindings +to any of your choice by editing ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/menurc. + + +Have fun, + + Spencer Kimball + Peter Mattis + Federico Mena + Manish Singh + Sven Neumann + Michael Natterer + Dave Neary + Martin Nordholts + Jehan |
