# This is the system-wide gimprc file.  Any change made in this file will
# affect all users of this system, provided that they are not overriding the
# default values in their personal gimprc file.
# 
# Lines that start with a '#' are comments. Blank lines are ignored.
# 
# By default everything in this file is commented out.  The file then
# documents the default values and shows what changes are possible.
# 
# The variable ${gimp_dir} is set to the value of the environment variable
# GIMP2_DIRECTORY or, if that is not set, the compiled-in default value is
# used.  If GIMP2_DIRECTORY is not an absolute path, it is interpreted
# relative to your home directory.

# Sets the folder for temporary storage. Files will appear here during the
# course of running GIMP.  Most files will disappear when GIMP exits, but
# some files are likely to remain, so it is best if this folder not be one
# that is shared by other users.  This is a single folder.
# 
# (temp-path "${gimp_dir}/tmp")

# Sets the swap file location. GIMP uses a tile based memory allocation
# scheme. The swap file is used to quickly and easily swap tiles out to disk
# and back in. Be aware that the swap file can easily get very large if GIMP
# is used with large images. Also, things can get horribly slow if the swap
# file is created on a folder that is mounted over NFS.  For these reasons,
# it may be desirable to put your swap file in "/tmp".  This is a single
# folder.
# 
# (swap-path "${gimp_dir}")

# Sets how many processors GIMP should try to use simultaneously.  This is an
# integer value.
# 
# (num-processors 1)

# When the amount of pixel data exceeds this limit, GIMP will start to swap
# tiles to disk.  This is a lot slower but it makes it possible to work on
# images that wouldn't fit into memory otherwise.  If you have a lot of RAM,
# you may want to set this to a higher value.  The integer size can contain a
# suffix of 'B', 'K', 'M' or 'G' which makes GIMP interpret the size as being
# specified in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes. If no suffix is
# specified the size defaults to being specified in kilobytes.
# 
# (tile-cache-size 1421926k)

# Specifies the language to use for the user interface.  This is a string
# value.

# 

# Sets the level of interpolation used for scaling and other transformations.
#  Possible values are none, linear, cubic and lanczos.
# 
# (interpolation-type cubic)

# Tools such as fuzzy-select and bucket fill find regions based on a
# seed-fill algorithm.  The seed fill starts at the initially selected pixel
# and progresses in all directions until the difference of pixel intensity
# from the original is greater than a specified threshold. This value
# represents the default threshold.  This is an integer value.

# (default-threshold 15)
