Any takers? Me. I got a question: I tried to get gimp for freebsd before, only to find out it needs Motif stuff, which I do not have. Is there any versions that do not need said stuff? The reason why I asked this is because at that time I got gimp, I got it from a different source than berkeley.edu, because berkeley was at that time broken. >Why gimp?

The email is also on the Lose95 side; that's why I need to be able to get it in floppy-sized chunks :( Jack > >
