Re: GIMP native Quartz

Hi,

That sounds like you're using the X11 variant of the ports, and not the Quartz 
variant.


one last update that "proves" that our build is somehow different than 
the one fistributed by GIMP.
First, I tried using the binary built on 10.5 on another computer and it 
didn't work. On 10.7 I haven't (yet) a MacPorts setup, it is not a 
development box.


The final test is a 10.6 machine, where I can have both: I have the 
"official" build installed and installed the MacPorts version!
The MacPorts version of gimp has on 10.6 exactly the same look as on 
10.5. It is a native Mac application but hasn't the look of it (tabs, 
buttons, etc...) the one distributed instead has a less square look. 
Actually it is mostly a kind of theme, because some details look like a 
more modern Mac and on 10.6 are out of place, but still it blends much 
nicer.


Somebody else compiled GIMP? How does it look there?

I'd like to have GIMP look as the distributed version, also because 
gimp.org officially mentions getting it through MacPorts!


Maybe by having the both version I can perform some check?

I’ve been using iTerm2 for a while but the 100th time I accidently middle-mouse 
clicked the tab bar only to have the tab be-gone usually in vi I binned it.
Terminal is a pretty good replacement except it askes stupid questions every 
time I suhtdown (everyday). Also irritating!
Google gnome-terminal and macports show numerous ‘it does not work’ entries 
with no ‘it now works; entries.

Can anybody comment on the current status please.

Any comments on a terminal that just works also welcome. I dont need (or even 
want) any fancy features like knitting christmas stockings (I jest, but you get 
the picture)

Thanks
James
