paul@62 | 42 <h3>Gcolor2 - Select and manage colors</h3> |
paul@62 | 43 <p> |
paul@62 | 44 Gcolor2 is a tool to select and retain palette colors. It can be useful for the creation of SliTaz themes |
paul@62 | 45 for example. It can be found in the Graphics category or run from the command line: |

paul@62 | 47 <pre> $ gcolor2 & |
paul@62 | 48 </pre> |

paul@62 | 51 <h3>Gimp - Manipulate and create images</h3> |
paul@62 | 52 <p> |
paul@63 | 53 The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation) is software that can manipulate images to a very high quality level. |
paul@62 | 54 It allows you to do what you would expect from an application that processes images, ie layers, filters, |
paul@62 | 55 support scripts adding functionality etc. GIMP supports a large number of image formats such as: |
paul@62 | 56 PNG, JPEG, XPM, PPM, TIFF, PostScript, PSD, it also offers it's own XCF format. To install GIMP: |
paul@62 | 57 </p> |
paul@62 | 58 <pre> # tazpkg get-install gimp |
paul@62 | 59 </pre> |
paul@62 | 60 <p> |
paul@62 | 61 GIMP is scalable and can be configured with the main interface - configuration files, brushes and personal |
paul@62 | 62 scripts are located in the <code>~/.gimp-2.2</code> directory. |

paul@62 | 77 <h3>jpeg - JPEG command line tools</h3> |
paul@62 | 78 <p> |
paul@62 | 79 To allow applications that use JPEG to function, linked libraries must be provided by the package |
paul@62 | 80 <code>jpeg-6b</code>, this package also contains some tiny utilities that can be used on the command |
paul@62 | 81 line such as <code>cjpeg</code> and <code>djpeg</code>. To modify JPEG images on the command line you |
paul@62 | 82 can also use <code>jpegtran</code>, installed by default on SliTaz, <code>jpegtran</code> allows you to |
paul@62 | 83 rotate images via the <code>-rotate</code> option. To find out all of the options available for these |
paul@62 | 84 tools, just specify the <code>--help</code> option. Example: |
paul@62 | 85 </p> |
paul@62 | 86 <pre> $ cjpeg --help |
