Several types functions were using the wording "float" historically to mean double-precision, e.g. the float array type (which was in fact a double array). Or the scanner function gimp_scanner_parse_float() was in fact returning a double value. What if we wanted someday to actually add float (usually this naming means in C the single-precision IEEE 754 floating point representation) support? How would we name this? Now technically it's not entirely wrong (a double is still a floating point). So I've been wondering if that is because maybe we never planned to have float and double precision may be good enough for all usage in a plug-in API (which doesn't have to be as generic so the higher precision is enough)? But how can we be sure? Also we already had some functions using the wording double (e.g. gimp_procedure_add_double_argument()), so let's just go the safe route and use the accurate wording. The additional change in PDB is internal, but there too, I was also finding very confusing that we were naming double-precision float as 'float' type. So I took the opportunity to update this. It doesn't change any signature. In fact the whole commit doesn't change any type or code logic, only naming, except for one bug fix in the middle which I encountered while renaming: in gimp_scanner_parse_deprecated_color(), I discovered a hidden bug in scanning (color-hsv*) values, which was mistakenly using a double type for an array of float. |

GNU Image Manipulation Program
3.0 Release Candidate
------------------------------
This is a release candidate for upcoming version 3.0.0 of GIMP.
This is not considered stable yet, unless testing tell us it is.
Therefore save your work early and often. If you want a stable
version, please use GIMP 2.10 instead.
If you think you found a bug in this version, please report it! We are
at the verge of releasing the next major version of GIMP, so any report
helps.
If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
1. Web Resources
================
GIMP's home page is at:
https://www.gimp.org/
Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there.
The latest version of GIMP can be found at:
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
We also have a website dedicated to documentation at:
https://docs.gimp.org/
2. Contributing
===============
GIMP source code can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/
Resources for contributors:
https://developer.gimp.org/
In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:
* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/
3. Discussion Channels
======================
We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:
https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html
For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user)
devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network).
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
irc.us.gimp.org:6667
irc.eu.gimp.org:6667
More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above
"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member.
Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are
also included in that page.
4. Customizing
==============
The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.
You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/shortcutsrc`.
Have fun,
