No description
When passing an application ID (which is necessary for application inhibition to work, i.e. logoff/reboot/shutdown inhibition), GApplication will try to ensure process uniqueness, which will trigger a new activation to an already running process. Since our current code assumes that the application can be activated a single time only, this was what was triggering a whole lot of errors (on the first running process) in #9598 because there was all the initialization code which ran again, whereas it was not supposed to. This doubly-running initialization code was also what completely messed up the session files, hence broke the GUI after a restart (#9599). Therefore passing G_APPLICATION_NON_UNIQUE advertizes we don't want GIO to handle process uniqueness for us. Note that this is actually a very interesting feature which we have had in GIMP codebase forever. It would be interesting to kill all our own uniqueness code in favor of GIO code (and let them handle/maintain passing command line arguments from one process to another, for all possible platforms). So I added a TODO for this (for now, we just ignore this feature as it doesn't work well with current codebase). |

GNU Image Manipulation Program
2.99 Development Branch
------------------------------
This is an unstable development release, an intermediate state on the
way to the next stable release: GIMP 3.0. GIMP 2.99 may or may not do
what you expect. 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 make sure that it
hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is
still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet.
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/
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
Links to several archives of the mailing lists are included in that page.
Gimp-user-list is a mailing list dedicated to user problems, hints and
tips, discussion of cool effects, etc. Gimp-developer-list is oriented
to GIMP core and plug-in developers. Gimp-gui-list is for discussing
about GIMP interface to improve user experience. Most people will only
want to be subscribed to gimp-user-list. If you want to help develop
GIMP, the gimp-developer mailing list is a good starting point; if you
want to help with GUI design, the gimp-gui list is where you want to
subscribe.
Other discussion channels can be listed on this page when they are
moderated by a team member, such as forums.
Finally, for the real junkies, there are IRC channels devoted to GIMP.
On GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network) there is #gimp.
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
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,
