Installation Instructions
- # rpm -Uvh gtk+*-1.0.4jp-1.ppc.rpm
- # rpm -Uvh gimp*-1.0.0jp-1.ppc.rpm
- # rpm -Uvh gimp-1.0.0jp-1.ppc.rpm
- # rpm -Uvh gimp-data-extras-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm
- # rpm -Uvh type1inst-0.6.1-2.noarch.rpm
- # rpm -Uvh xfreefonts-0.10-9.noarch.rpm
Notice that I had to repeat 'rpm -Uvh' for gimp-1.00jp-1 above
because of a shared library packaging scheme change
from the English versions.
Usage
Before using gimp, remove the old .gimp directory in your
home directory.
- $ cd
- $ rm -rf .gimp
Now you can try
- $ gimp
In order to use Japanese extensions, do the following:
- $ cd ~/.gimp
- $ mv gtkrc gtkrc.en
- $ ln -s gtkrc.ja gtkrc
- $ export LANG=ja_JP.eucJP
- $ export XMODIFIERS='@im=kinput2'
- $ export GDK_CONV=/usr/doc/gtk+-1.0.4jp/gtkconv-1.0.4.2/dic.ja_JP.ujis
- $ gimp
Now you should see Japanese menus.
You can also input Japanese text with kinput2 by
selecting "T" from the tool palette, clicking on the
canvas to popup a text input dialog, choosing a
Japanese font, putting the cursor in the text input
box, and hitting SHIFT+SPACE to start the input method.
Caution:
Under 256-color environment, button icons don't show themselves
up properly. If any other color-intensive application is currently
running, "gimp" even fails to start. Use 32000 colors or more.
