GIMP: Typo in .ini file

Submitted by RPBirt on April 10, 2006 - 1:59pm

I am not sure if this is making a difference but the ini file reads:

GIMPDirectory=gimp\bin
GTKDirectory=gtk\gin
SettingsDirectory=settings

instead of
GTKDirectory=gtk\bin

Would the NSIS treat this as a "no ini" and default to GTK in the enviornmental variable path?

GIMP: Size on disk

Submitted by guspasho on April 9, 2006 - 6:57pm

Unzipped, the application folder comes out to 17.5MB, but size on disk is over 31.5 MB (The effective space the program takes because of the sector size; A 1kB file takes up 4kB of space when sector size is 4kB.) Is there any way to run the application from an archive, or leave at least most of those 1700+ files in an archive file on the USB drive so you don't have 80% wasted space? Even an uncompressed archive would save all that space and wouldn't drag performance too much.

GIMP: Launch Error

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on April 8, 2006 - 6:33pm

Getting this error on launch in the following file? Anyone else having same issue?

AppName: gimp-2.2.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: freetype6.dll
ModVer: 2.1.8.1590 Offset: 0002d782

GIMP: Another Error? - settings dir

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on April 8, 2006 - 2:39am

In the CheckPortableAppsSplitDIR: labeled section,
$SETTINGSDIRECTORY never gets set like it does in the rest of sections above it.
Previously mentioned error (test for "..App..", using "..Apps..") seems to be masking this.

Also, Launcher seems to be ignoring the ini file setting for SettingsDirectory.
GIMP asks user to create setting folder in user's home folder on the machine.

Nit pick:
Check your comment in the GIMPEnvironment: labeled section.

GIMP: problem

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on April 7, 2006 - 7:49pm

at home (where i have gtk installed already) it works fine. at school, where there is no gtk, it's telling me it's missing a dll and it won't even open.
