DESCRIPTION

       Film  Gimp is a motion picture editing tool primarily used for painting
       and retouching of individual movie frames. With sixteen bits per compo-
       nent  instead  of  eight,  Film Gimp has much more color depth capacity
       than Gimp.  Film Gimp extended Gimp to operate upon a series of images,
       known  as  the  frame  manager, and in 16-bit linear and floating point
       color depths. Film Gimp is currently based  upon  the  HOLLYWOOD  1.0.4
       branch of Gimp, but is no longer a part of the GIMP project.

       Film  Gimp  features  a  set  of drawing, painting, and selection tools
       along with a frame manager to allow for quickly and easily working with
       multiple sequential image files.

       Film  Gimp  has  the  script-fu  scripting  extension  which allows for
       advanced non-interactive processing and creation of images.


OPTIONS

       -h, --help
               Display a list of all commandline options.

       -v, --version
               Output the version info.

       -b, --batch <commands>
               Execute the set of <commands>  non-interactively.  The  set  of

               executed by one of the Gimp scripting extensions.

       -n, --no-interface
               Run without a user interface.

       --no-data
               Do not load patterns, gradients, palettes,  or  brushes.  Often
               useful  in  non-interactive situations where startup time is to
               be minimized.

       --verbose
               Show startup messages.

       --no-shm
               Do not use shared memory between Film  Gimp  and  its  plugins.
               Instead  of  using  shared memory, Film Gimp will send the data

       --display display
               Use the designated X display.

               screen.

       --debug-handlers
               Enable debugging signal handlers.

       --console-messages
               Do not popup dialog boxes on errors or warnings. Print the mes-
               sages on the console instead.


ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.


FILES

       Most Film Gimp configuration is read  in  from  the  users  init  file,
       $HOME/.filmgimp/gimprc.   The   system  wide  equivalent  is  in  $PRE-
       FIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gimprc. The  system  wide  file  is  parsed
       first  and  the  user's  gimprc  overrides  the  sytem  settings. $PRE-
       FIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gimprc_user is the default gimprc placed in
       users home directories the first time a user runs filmgimp.

       Film  Gimp's  data  files are stored in $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION
       where $PREFIX is set on install, but is typically /usr/local.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/gtkrc - users set of GTK config settings. Options  such
       as widget color and fonts' sizes can be set here.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gtkrc  -  sytem wide default set of GTK
       config settings.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/menurc - user's set of keybindings.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/plug-ins - location of user installed plugins.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/pluginrc -  plugin  initialization  values  are  stored
       here. This file is parsed on startup and regenerated if need be.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/tmp  -  default  location  that  gimp uses as temporary
       space.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/brushes - system wide brush files.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/brushes - user created and installed brush files.  This
       files are in the .gbr (gimp brush) format.
       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/patterns  -  basic  set of patterns for
       use in Film Gimp.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/patterns - user created and installed Film Gimp pattern
       files. These files are in the .pat format.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gradients - standard system wide set of
       gradient files.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/gradients - user created and installed gradient  files.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/scripts  -  system  wide  directory  of
       scripts used in Script-Fu and other scripting extensions.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/scripts - user created and installed scripts.

       $HOME/.filmgimp/gflares - user created and installed gflare files.

       $HOME/.gimp/gfig - user created and installed gfig files.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gimp_splash.ppm - graphic file used for
       the gimp splash screen.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gimp_logo.ppm  -  graphic  file used in
       the gimp about dialog.

       $PREFIX/share/filmgimp/$VERSION/gimp_tips.txt - list of tips  displayed
