<P>
When you choose "Open" from either the image or toolbox File
menus, you can select how Gimp open files in "Determine File Type". You
can either select a specifc format so Gimp will open all files
regardless of their name, in that format. Alternatively, you can select
"Automatic" which opens the file in whatever format corresponds to the
extension.
