    This is basically correct, except that the 'Linux version of GIMP' will be 'redone' at the same time. We are modularizing the UI components. That means we are abstracting the central GIMP code away from GTK+ to be toolkit independent.

    Once completed, we will have 'modules' (dynamic libraries) for GTK+ and the BeOS interface kit. This should allow much more rapid development of additional interfaces in the future, including versions of GIMP that run with no user interface at all (batch/server processing.)

    Heh. Thanks for pointing that out. Guess the copy got mangled between here and Be. Should be fixed on our website now at least.

    Hey folks, we've added a bit of content to our web pages. There's a preliminary screenshot of the main GIMP toolbox here.

    Indeed, we're a new/small company, but hopefully we'll be able to contribute something decent. Thanks for the support.

  5. Re:How did they do it? on GIMP, Civ:CTP, and low-cost box Coming to BeOS · · Score: 3

    It has long been a goal to modularize the UI in GIMP for purposes of portability and server functionality. We are doing the port as a 100% BeOS interface kit application. Porting GTK+ to BeOS would be useful, but we thought GIMP wouldn't really be a first-class Be application in a non-native toolkit.
