Re: [Gimp-user] Canvas Size on Crop

[Ruben Safir <ruben mrbrklyn com>]

Also, it would be great if you fixed the file previewer.  Why does it
work in every other piece of software, but not the gimp?  I get tired of
opening directories with viewnoir and then forking to the gimp.

And please return Crop to normal so it is useful and people don't laugh
at us for using broken software.  Just borrow the libraries from
ImageMagick.
