Thanks Webgraph for this. The GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software suitable for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.
Changes:
- GLib 2.0 has been released. GIMP and GTK+ thus now depend on those DLLs. The GLib 2.0 DLL names will not change, even if GLib 2.0.1, 2.0.2 etc are released, as these releases will be binary compatible. (The GLib 1.3.x series were development versions, and thus by definition without any promise of binary compaibility, which has meant that each version has had differently named DLLs.)
- GTK+, and thus GIMP, now runs on Windows also in 256-colour display modes.
- GTK+ now handles cut and paste of non-ASCII text to/from the Windows clipboard much better.
- GTK+ now handles intra-application drag-and-drop. You can use drag-and-drop in a couple of places in the GIMP user interface, for instance the Layers, Channel and Paths dialog.
- Some new "unofficial" plug-ins have been included. There is now a plug-in that interfaces to Photoshop plug-ins. It is still very experimental.
