Here I would modfiy that because I use the gimp for all my image printing, so the 2.0 release needs to be able to link up with the newer gimp-print too. So far, that hasn't happened. I assume it will by the time gimp-print is out in 5.0 final, and gimp in 2.0 final. And because I've not run into anything that my limited gfx knowledge says needs fixed, I'm still at a self-compiled 1.2.3 here. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
