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 automated plug-in registry is located at: + + https://registry.gimp.org/ + +There you can get the latest versions of plug-ins, using a convenient +forms-based interface. + +The latest version of GIMP can be found at: + + https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ + + +2. Mailing Lists +================ + +We have several mailing lists dedicated to GIMP user and development +discussion. There is more info at + + https://www.gimp.org/mail_lists.html + +Links to several archives of the mailing lists are included in that page. + +Gimp-user-list is a mailing list dedicated to user problems, hints and +tips, discussion of cool effects, etc. Gimp-developer-list is oriented +to GIMP core and plug-in developers. Gimp-gui-list is for discussing +about GIMP interface to improve user experience. Most people will only +want to be subscribed to gimp-user-list. If you want to help develop +GIMP, the gimp-developer mailing list is a good starting point; if you +want to help with GUI design, the gimp-gui list is where you want to +subscribe. + + +3. IRC +====== + +And finally, for the real junkies, there is an IRC channel devoted to +GIMP. On GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network) there is +#gimp. 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 + + +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 diff --git a/README.i18n b/README.i18n new file mode 100644 index 0000000..84f4ccd --- /dev/null +++ b/README.i18n @@ -0,0 +1,65 @@ +This file contains some important hints for translators. + + +The current status of the GIMP translation can be checked at + + https://l10n.gnome.org/module/gimp + + +Translation of the GNU Image Manipulation Program is handled by the +GNOME Translation Project (see https://l10n.gnome.org/).

Therefore there is + not one catalog but many. For a full translation of GIMP's UI, you + will have to add translations for the following catalogs: + + po/gimp20.po -- the core + po-libgimp/gimp20-libgimp.pot -- the libgimp library + po-plugins/gimp20-std-plugins.pot -- the C plug-ins + po-python/gimp20-python.pot -- the pygimp plug-ins + po-script-fu/gimp20-script-fu.pot -- the script-fu scripts + po-tips/gimp20-tips.pot -- the startup tips + po-windows-installer/gimp20-windows-installer.pot -- the windows installer + + If you are looking for the translations of gimp-perl, please note that + gimp-perl has been moved into it's own git module called + gimp-perl. + + +GIMP Tips dialog + + In addition to message catalogs GIMP provides a file with tips that + are displayed in the Tips dialog. This file is in XML format and can + be found in the tips directory. The english tips messages are + extracted from gimp-tips.xml.in so translators can use the usual + tools to create a <lang>.po file that holds the translations. All + translations are then merged into gimp-tips.xml with language + identifiers taken from the po filename. + + GIMP needs to know what language it should select from gimp-tips.xml. + Therefore, there's the special message "tips-locale:C" in the main + message catalog that needs to be translated correctly. For a german + translation of the tips this would look like this: + + #: ../app/dialogs/tips-parser.c:188 + msgid "tips-locale:C" + msgstr "tips-locale:de" + + +Localization of third-party plug-ins + + Third-party plug-ins (plug-ins that are not distributed with GIMP) + can't have their messages in the gimp-std-plugins textdomain. We + have therefore provided a mechanism that allows plug-ins to install + their own message catalogs and tell GIMP to bind to that + textdomain. This is necessary so that GIMP can correctly translate + the menu paths the plug-in registers. Basically the plug-in has to + call gimp_plugin_domain_add() or gimp_domain_plugin_add_with_path() + before it registers any functions. Have a look at the script-fu + plug-in to see how this is done in detail. |
