From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can you finally draw a circle?
Circles aren't even real, man. Its just a state of mind.
They have shape tools on the roadmap for this free image manipulation app, until then we'll have to use the two-step method of stroking a circular selection or use a more dedicated drawing app.
In any case GIMP 3.0 is a huge rewrite under the hood and seems to be attracting more contributors now, which is a good sign.
More contributors is great. Whilst I think sticking to C will always limit its outreach somewhat I think the reliance on GTK2 was probably even worse for anyone brave enough to dive into that spaghetti mess.
You mean an infinite polyhedron? Are you out of your mind?
Shudders man, think of the implications.. What if it was aliased or something
Isn’t this what the included gfig or whatever plugin is called?
