> Eh? There is a Linux version too...


I am aware of this, but the website says...

"GIMPshop modifies the menu structure to closely match Photoshop's, adjusts
the program's terminology to match Adobe's, and, in the
Windows<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows>version, uses a
plugin called 'Deweirdifier' to combine the application's
numerous windows in a similar manner to the
MDI<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_document_interface>system
used by most Windows graphics packages."

..."and, in the Windows version..." appears to imply that the Linux version
doesn't have the windows combined, which appeared to be on of Jai's main
gripes with GIMP...

I do not know for sure because I haven't ever installed the thing.  Perhaps
somebody who has will be able to clarify the situation.

ps. Jai's Windows-using friends ought to be targeted by the Ubuntu
evangelists... think of all the time they'd have on their hands if they were
no longer capable of doing all his photo/image manipulation for him, lol!!
As good a reason to change OS as any, methinks... ;-)
