Mac native version of GIMP

Hi all,
Are there plans for porting GIMP to Mac OS X using Aqua and not X11?

I'm interested in learning how to code user interfaces and in helping the free software community (since it has developed so many useful software that I use daily). I've used GIMP for Linux and Windows but not for Mac. I'm switching to Mac when Leopard ships. If there's a porting project I will help coding the interface of GIMP for Aqua (or start a new project if there's none).

Hi,

there are two projects that might interest you:

- there is a project that "ported" the GTK+ backend to OS X, meaning there is hope to run any GTK application (e.g. GIMP) on OS X without X11 soon. For more information have a deeper look into the gtk devel mailinglist over at gtk.org

- there is a project called seashore that build a new Application on OS X native that is not GIMP but based on its technologies. You can find it at http://seashore.sourceforge.net/

I for my person would appreciate results from the first project very much :)

Greetings, lexA

do you know the name of this project? In which state (alpha, beta) is it now? Does it provides a native Mac OS X look?

- there is a project called seashore that build a new Application on OS X

native that is not GIMP but based on its technologies. You can find it at http://seashore.sourceforge.net/

I've read about Seashore. This is a fork, I was thinking more of an 'official' GIMP version for Mac OS X (like Firefox for Mac). Is this project using GEGL ?

I for my person would appreciate results from the first project very much :)

Me too. Free Software is very useful as libraries, a GTK version for Aqua will be very important and make porting to Mac almost trivial.

Greetings ^_^

do you know the name of this project? I gave you the URL in my previous response!! didn't you read it?for the record, here they are again* http://developer.imendio.com/projects/gtk-macosx (besides that it's found on gtk.org...)* http://wiki.gimp.org/gimp/HowToCompileGimp/MacOSX

There is not much platform dependent code in Gimp. Basically, the source should compile O.k. on any platform for which the underlying libraries (mainly Gtk+, Glib, GEGL, and BABL) are available.

So actually it is more of a question whether Gtk+ will receive a native Mac port.

GTK+ has a native Mac (Quartz) port for quite a while already. All it lacks is more people using it, reporting bugs, fixing bugs and maintaining the code whenever things change in GTK+/GDK.
