>   This section assumes that you have the GIMP version 1.2 installed
and working properly on your computer, and that you have an image of
some type that you desire to print. To get started quickly, log into
your system, start the X window system, and bring up your favorite terminal
window.  At the $ prompt, type:

  <TABLE
BORDER="0"
BGCOLOR="#E0E0E0"
WIDTH="100%"
><TR
><TD
><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>  
     $ gimp &#38;
    
  </PRE
></TD
></TR
></TABLE
>

   This should start the GIMP for you. If it does not, check that
you have installed the GIMP properly, and that its binary is located
in one of the directories listed in your &dollar;PATH environment
variable. On the assumption that this worked, the screen should now
look something like this:

   <DIV
CLASS="FIGURE"
><A
NAME="AEN67"

><P
><B
>Figure 2-1. The Startup Window for The GIMP</B
></P
><DIV
CLASS="MEDIAOBJECT"
><P
><IMG
SRC="figures/gimp_startup.png"></P
></DIV
></DIV
>

   </P
><P
>   At this point, you should use the

    <SPAN
CLASS="GUIMENU"
>File</SPAN
>-&gt;<SPAN
CLASS="GUIMENUITEM"
>Open</SPAN
>

menu option to open your favorite picture. We will print this picture
shortly. Your picture should be displayed next to the GIMP startup
window, perhaps looking similar to the following (sssh! Don't tell
anybody the secret!):
