Question 4.10: You want to edit an image....
You want to edit an image.
Step-by-Step
Download and run the GNU image manipulation program (GIMP; see Figure 4-12).
To install GIMP, open a Terminal session and type the following command:
| $ sudo apt-get install gimp |
Once GIMP is installed, you’ll find a new entry in your Start menu under the Graphics heading called GNU Image Manipulation Program.
Discussion
Despite being very hungry for memory and processor power, GIMP is quite usable on a Raspberry Pi model B.

Find out more from the GIMP website.
GIMP has a lot of features and is a very sophisticated image editing program, so it does take a little learning. You’ll find an online manual for the software at the GIMP website, under the Documentation tab.
For more information on installing with apt-get, see Recipe 3.16.
