|
Tux Paint Config.
|
|
|
|
As of Tux Paint version 0.9.14, a graphical tool is available that
|
|
allows you to change Tux Paint's behavior. However, if you'd rather not
|
|
install and use this tool, or want a better understanding of the
|
|
available options, please continue reading.
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Configuration File
|
|
|
|
You can create a simple configuration file for Tux Paint, which it will
|
|
read each time you start it up.
|
|
|
|
The file is simply a plain text file containing the options you want
|
|
enabled:
|
|
|
|
Linux and Unix Users
|
|
|
|
The file you should create is called ".tuxpaintrc" and it should be
|
|
placed in your home directory. (a.k.a. "~/.tuxpaintrc" or
|
|
"$HOME/.tuxpaintrc")
|
|
|
|
System-Wide Configuration File
|
|
|
|
Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is read.
|
|
(By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.) It is
|
|
located at:
|
|
|
|
/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf
|
|
|
|
You can disable reading of this file altogether, leaving the
|
|
settings as defaults (which can then be overridden by your
|
|
".tuxpaintrc" file and/or command-line arguments) by using the
|
|
command-line option:
|
|
|
|
--nosysconfig
|
|
|
|
Mac OS X Users
|
|
|
|
The file you should create is called "tuxpaint.cfg" and it should be
|
|
placed in your home folder, under the sub-folder: Library/Application
|
|
Support/TuxPaint
|
|
|
|
System-Wide Configuration File
|
|
|
|
Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is read.
|
|
(By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.) It is
|
|
located at:
|
|
|
|
/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/tuxpaint.cfg
|
|
|
|
Windows Users
|
|
|
|
The file you should create is called "tuxpaint.cfg" and it should be
|
|
placed in Tux Paint's folder.
|
|
|
|
You can use NotePad or WordPad to create this file. Be sure to save
|
|
it as Plain Text, and make sure the filename doesn't have ".txt" at
|
|
the end...
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Available Options
|
|
|
|
The following settings can be set in the configuration file.
|
|
(Command-line settings will override these. See the "Command-Line
|
|
Options" section, below.)
|
|
|
|
fullscreen=yes
|
|
Run the program in full screen mode, rather than in a window.
|
|
|
|
fullscreen=native
|
|
Run the program in full screen mode. Additionally, assume the
|
|
screen's current resolution (set by the operating system).
|
|
|
|
windowsize=SIZE
|
|
|
|
Run the program at a different size (in windowed mode) or at a
|
|
different screen resolution (in fullscreen mode), rather than
|
|
the default (usually 800x600).
|
|
|
|
The SIZE value should be presented in pixels, in
|
|
'width-by-height' format, with an "x" (lowercase X) between
|
|
the values. The size can be anything that's at least 640 wide,
|
|
and at least 480 tall.
|
|
|
|
Some examples:
|
|
* 640x480
|
|
* 1024x768
|
|
* 768x1024
|
|
* 1600x1200
|
|
|
|
orient=portrait
|
|
|
|
Swaps the width/height options given to Tux Paint, useful for
|
|
rotating the window on portait displays, such as a tablet PC
|
|
that's in tablet orientation.
|
|
|
|
native=yes
|
|
|
|
When running Tux Paint in fullscreen mode, this assumes the
|
|
screen's current resolution (overriding any "windowsize"
|
|
option), as set by the operating system.
|
|
|
|
allowscreensaver=yes
|
|
|
|
By default, Tux Paint prevents your system's screensaver from
|
|
starting up. You can override this by using the
|
|
"allowscreensaver" option. Note: This requires version 1.2.12
|
|
or higher of the SDL library. (You can also do this by setting
|
|
the "SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER" environment variable on your
|
|
system to "1".)
|
|
|
|
nosound=yes
|
|
Disable sound effects. (Note: Pressing [Alt] + [S] cannot be
|
|
used to reenable sounds if they were disabled using this
|
|
option.)
|
|
|
|
noquit=yes
|
|
|
|
Disable the on-screen "Quit" button and prevent the [Escape]
|
|
key from quitting Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
Using the [Alt] + [F4] keyboard combination or clicking the
|
|
window's close button (assuming you're not in fullscreen mode)
|
|
still works to quit Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
You can also use the following keyboard combination to quit:
|
|
[Shift] + [Control] + [Escape].
|
|
|
|
noprint=yes
|
|
Disable the printing feature.
|
|
|
|
printdelay=SECONDS
|
|
Restrict printing so that printing can occur only once every
|
|
SECONDS seconds.
|
|
|
|
printcommand=COMMAND
|
|
|
|
(Linux and Unix only)
|
|
|
|
Use the command COMMAND to print a PostScript format file when
|
|
the 'Print' button is clicked. If this option is not
|
|
specifically not set, the default command is:
|
|
|
|
lpr
|
|
|
|
Note: Versions of Tux Paint prior to 0.9.15 sent PNG format
|
|
data to the print command (which defaulted to
|
|
"pngtopnm | pnmtops | lpr").
|
|
|
|
If you set an alternative printcommand in the configuration
|
|
file prior to version 0.9.15, you will need to change it.
|
|
|
|
altprintcommand=COMMAND
|
|
|
|
(Linux and Unix only)
|
|
|
|
Use the command COMMAND to print a PostScript format file when
|
|
the 'Print' button is clicked while the [Alt] modifier key is
|
|
being held. (This is typically used for providing a print
|
|
dialog, similar to when pressing [Alt]+'Print' in Windows and
|
|
Mac OS X.)
|
|
|
|
If this option is not specifically not set, the default
|
|
command is KDE's graphical print dialog:
|
|
|
|
kprinter
|
|
|
|
printcfg=yes
|
|
|
|
(Windows and Mac OS X only)
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint will use a printer configuration file when printing.
|
|
Push the [Alt] key while clicking the 'Print' button in
|
|
Tux Paint to cause a Windows print dialog window to appear.
|
|
|
|
(Note: This only works when not running Tux Paint in
|
|
fullscreen mode.) Any configuration changes made in this
|
|
dialog will be saved to the file "userdata/print.cfg", and
|
|
used again, as long as the "printcfg" option is set.
|
|
|
|
altprint=always
|
|
|
|
This causes Tux Paint to always show the printer dialog (or,
|
|
on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the 'Print'
|
|
button is clicked. In other words, it's like clicking 'Print'
|
|
while holding [Alt], except you don't need to hold [Alt] every
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
altprint=never
|
|
|
|
This prevents Tux Paint from ever showing the printer dialog
|
|
(or, on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the
|
|
'Print' button is clicked. In other words, it makes the [Alt]
|
|
key have no effect when clicking the 'Print' button.
|
|
|
|
altprint=mod
|
|
|
|
This is the normal, default behavior. Tux Paint shows a
|
|
printer dialog (or, on Linux/Unix, runs the
|
|
"altprintcommand"), when the [Alt] key is pressed while the
|
|
'Print' button is clicked. Clicking 'Print' without holding
|
|
[Alt] prints without showing a dialog.
|
|
|
|
papersize=PAPERSIZE
|
|
|
|
(Platforms that use Tux Paint's internal PostScript generator
|
|
- not Windows, Mac OS X or BeOS.)
|
|
|
|
Tell Tux Paint what size PostScript to generate. If none is
|
|
specified, Tux Paint first checks your $PAPER environment
|
|
variable, then the file /etc/papersize, then uses the the
|
|
'libpaper' library's default paper size.
|
|
|
|
Valid paper sizes include: letter, legal, tabloid, executive,
|
|
note, statement, a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, a8, a9, a10,
|
|
b0, b1, b2 b3, b4, 10x14, 11x17, halfletter, halfexecutive,
|
|
halfnote, folio, quarto, ledger, archA, archB, archC, archD,
|
|
archE, flsa, flse, csheet, dsheet, esheet.
|
|
|
|
nolockfile=yes
|
|
|
|
By default, Tux Paint uses what's known as a 'lockfile' to
|
|
prevent it from being launched more than once in 30 seconds.
|
|
(This is to avoid accidentally running multiple copies; for
|
|
example, by double-clicking a single-click launcher, or simply
|
|
impatiently clicking the icon multiple times.)
|
|
|
|
To make Tux Paint ignore the lockfile, allowing it to run
|
|
again, even if it was just launched less than 30 seconds ago,
|
|
enable this setting in the configuration file, or run
|
|
Tux Paint with the '--nolockfile' option on the command-line.
|
|
|
|
By default, the lockfile is stored in "~/.tuxpaint/" under
|
|
Linux and Unix, and "userdata\" under Windows.
|
|
|
|
simpleshapes=yes
|
|
Disable the rotation step of the 'Shape' tool. Click, drag and
|
|
release is all that will be needed to draw a shape.
|
|
|
|
uppercase=yes
|
|
All text will be rendered only in uppercase (e.g., "Brush"
|
|
will be "BRUSH"). Useful for children who can read, but who
|
|
have only learned uppercase letters so far.
|
|
|
|
grab=yes
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint will attempt to 'grab' the mouse and keyboard, so
|
|
that the mouse is confined to Tux Paint's window, and nearly
|
|
all keyboard input is passed directly to it.
|
|
|
|
This is useful to disable operating system actions that could
|
|
get the user out of Tux Paint [Alt]-[Tab] window cycling,
|
|
[Ctrl]-[Escape], etc. This is especially useful in fullscreen
|
|
mode.
|
|
|
|
noshortcuts=yes
|
|
|
|
This disable keyboard shortcuts (e.g., [Ctrl]-[S] for save,
|
|
[Ctrl]-[N] for a new image, etc.)
|
|
|
|
This is useful to prevent unwanted commands from being
|
|
activated by children who aren't experienced with keyboards.
|
|
|
|
nowheelmouse=yes
|
|
This disables support for the wheel on mice that have it.
|
|
(Normally, the wheel will scroll the selector menu on the
|
|
right.)
|
|
|
|
nobuttondistinction=yes
|
|
|
|
Prior to Tux Paint 0.9.15, the middle and right buttons on a
|
|
mouse could also be used for clicking. In version 0.9.15, it
|
|
was changed so that only the left mouse button worked, so as
|
|
to not train children to use the wrong button.
|
|
|
|
However, for children who have trouble with the mouse, this
|
|
distinction between the two or three buttons on a mouse can be
|
|
disabled (returning Tux Paint to its old behavior) by using
|
|
this option.
|
|
|
|
nofancycursors=yes
|
|
|
|
This disables the fancy mouse pointer shapes in Tux Paint, and
|
|
uses your environment's normal mouse pointer.
|
|
|
|
In some enviornments, the fancy cursors cause problems. Use
|
|
this option to avoid them.
|
|
|
|
hidecursor=yes
|
|
|
|
This completely hides the mouse pointer shapes in Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
This is useful for touchscreen devices, such as tablet PCs.
|
|
|
|
nooutlines=yes
|
|
|
|
In this mode, much simpler outlines and 'rubber-band' lines
|
|
are displayed when using the Lines, Shapes, Stamps and Eraser
|
|
tools.
|
|
|
|
This can help when Tux Paint is run on very slow computers, or
|
|
displayed on a remote X-Window display.
|
|
|
|
sysfonts=yes
|
|
|
|
This option causes Tux Paint to attempt to load fonts (for use
|
|
in the Text tool) from your operating system. Normally,
|
|
Tux Paint will only load the ones that came bundled with
|
|
Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
alllocalefonts=yes
|
|
|
|
Prior to version 0.9.21, Tux Paint loaded all fonts in its own
|
|
fonts directory, including locale-specific ones (e.g., the one
|
|
for Tibetan, which had no latin characters). As of 0.9.21, the
|
|
only font loaded from the locale-specific subdirectory, if
|
|
any, is one matching the locale Tux Paint is running on.
|
|
|
|
To load all locale-specific fonts (the old behavior), set this
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
nostamps=yes
|
|
|
|
This option tells Tux Paint to not load any rubber stamp
|
|
images, which in turn ends up disabling the Stamps tool.
|
|
|
|
This can speed up Tux Paint when it first loads up, and reduce
|
|
memory usage while it's running. Of course, no stamps will be
|
|
available at all.
|
|
|
|
nostampcontrols=yes
|
|
Some images in the Stamps tool can be mirrored, flipped,
|
|
and/or have their size changed. This option disables the
|
|
controls, and only provides the basic stamps.
|
|
|
|
nomagiccontrols=yes
|
|
Some Magic tools have the option of acting like a paintbrush,
|
|
or affecting the entire canvas at once. This option disables
|
|
the controls, and only provides the default functionality
|
|
(usually paint-mode).
|
|
|
|
nolabel=yes
|
|
Disables the Label tool: the tool that allows text entry which
|
|
can be edited later.
|
|
|
|
mirrorstamps=yes
|
|
|
|
For stamps that can be mirrored, this option sets them to
|
|
their mirrored shape by default.
|
|
|
|
This can be useful for people who prefer things right-to-left,
|
|
rather than left-to-right.
|
|
|
|
mouse-accessibility=yes
|
|
In this mode, instead of clicking, dragging and releasing
|
|
(e.g., to draw), you click, move, and click again to end the
|
|
motion.
|
|
|
|
onscreen-keyboard=yes
|
|
Presents a clickable on-screen keyboard when using the Text
|
|
and Label tools.
|
|
|
|
onscreen-keyboard-layout=LAYOUTNAME
|
|
Selects the initial layout for the on-screen keyboard when
|
|
using the Text and Label tools.
|
|
Note: Using this option implies automatically
|
|
onscreen-keyboard=yes, so setting both is redundant.
|
|
|
|
onscreen-keyboard-disable-change=yes
|
|
Disables the possibility for changing the layout of the
|
|
on-screen keyboard when using the Text and Label tools, useful
|
|
for simplifying things for the small children.
|
|
Note: Using this option implies automatically
|
|
onscreen-keyboard=yes, so setting both is redundant.
|
|
|
|
joystick-dev=N
|
|
Specify which joystick device should be used by Tux Paint.
|
|
Default value is 0 (the first joystick).
|
|
|
|
joystick-slowness=SPEED
|
|
Sets a delay at each axis motion, allowing to slow the
|
|
joystick. Allowed values are from 0 to 500. Default value is
|
|
15.
|
|
|
|
joystick-threshold=THRESHOLD
|
|
Sets the minimum level of axis motion to start moving the
|
|
pointer. Allowed values are from 0 to 32766. Default value is
|
|
3200.
|
|
|
|
joystick-maxsteps=STEPS
|
|
Sets the maximum pixels the pointer will move at once. Allowed
|
|
values are from 1 to 7. Default value is 7.
|
|
|
|
joystick-hat-timeout=MILLISECONDS
|
|
Sets the delay after wich the pointer will start moving
|
|
automatically if the hat is keeped pushed. Allowed values are
|
|
from 0 to 3000. Default value is 1000.
|
|
|
|
joystick-hat-slowness=SPEED
|
|
Sets a delay at each automatic motion, allowing to slow the
|
|
speed of the hat. Allowed values are from 0 to 500. Default
|
|
value is 15.
|
|
|
|
joystick-btn-escape=BUTTON NUMBER
|
|
Selects the joystick button number, as seen by SDL, that will
|
|
be used to generate a escape event. Useful to dismiss dialogs
|
|

|
|
|
|
joystick-buttons-ignore=BUTTON1,BUTTON2,...
|
|
A set of joystick button numbers, as seen by SDL, that should
|
|
be ignored. Otherwise, unless they are used by one of the
|
|
"joystick-btn-" options above, buttons will be seen as a mouse
|
|
left-click.
|
|
|
|
stampsize=SIZE
|
|
|
|
Use this option to force Tux Paint to set the starting size of
|
|
all stamps. The SIZE value should be between 0 (smallest) and
|
|
10 (largest). The size is relative to the available sizes of
|
|
the stamp, which depends on the stamp itself, and Tux Paint's
|
|
current canvas size.
|
|
|
|
Specifc "default" to let Tux Paint decide (it's standard
|
|
behavior).
|
|
|
|
keyboard=yes
|
|
|
|
This allows the keyboard arrow keys to be used to control the
|
|
mouse pointer. (e.g., for mouseless environments, or
|
|
handicapped/accessibility purposes)
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
* Fine movement within canvas, or coarse movement if
|
|
[Shift] is held.
|
|
* Coarse movement within tool button areas.
|
|
* Key controls:
|
|
* [Left]/[Right]/[Up]/[Down], numpad [1] thru [9]:
|
|
Move mouse
|
|
* [Space]/[5]: Click mouse (except when using "Text"
|
|
or "Label" tools)
|
|
* [Insert]/[F5]: Click mouse (always)
|
|
* [F4] jump mouse between "Tools", "Colors" and canvas
|
|
areas
|
|
* If mouse is within "Tools" section on the left, or
|
|
"Colors" secton at the bottom:
|
|
* [F7], [F8]: Move down/up between buttons,
|
|
respectively (Tools section, only)
|
|
* [F11], [F12]: Move to previous/next button,
|
|
respectively
|
|
* To click-and-drag, hold one of the 'click' keys (e.g.,
|
|
[Insert]), and use the movement keys (e.g., [Left]).
|
|
* Note: The "mouse accessibility" feature works with
|
|
the keyboard mouse controls. With both options
|
|
enabled, painting tools can be used to draw by
|
|
pressing a 'click' key to start clicking, movement
|
|
keys to move around (which will draw), and another
|
|
'click' key to end the click (stop drawing).
|
|
* A regular mouse and/or joystick may still be used (so you
|
|
can, e.g., move with the mouse, and click with the
|
|
keyboard, or vice-versa)
|
|
|
|
savedir=DIRECTORY
|
|
|
|
Use this option to change where Tux Paint's "saved"
|
|
directory/folder is located, which is where Tux Paint saves
|
|
and opens pictures.
|
|
|
|
If you do not override it, the default location is:
|
|
* Linux & Unix - Under a hidden directory named ".tuxpaint"
|
|
in your home directory (aka "~" or "$HOME")
|
|
Example: "/home/username/.tuxpaint/saved/"
|
|
|
|
* Windows - Inside a folder named "TuxPaint" in your
|
|
"Application Data" folder.
|
|
Example:
|
|
"C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\TuxPaint\saved\"
|
|
|
|
* Mac OS X - Inside a folder named "TuxPaint" in your
|
|
"Application Support" folder.
|
|
Example:
|
|
"/Users/Username/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/saved/"
|
|
|
|
Note: When specifying a Windows drive (e.g., "H:\"), you must
|
|
also specify a subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
Note: Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux Paint would also use the
|
|
setting or default for "savedir" as the place to search for
|
|
personal data files (brushes, stamps, starters and fonts). As
|
|
of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately (see the
|
|
"datadir" option, below).
|
|
|
|
Example: savedir=Z:\tuxpaint\
|
|
|
|
datadir=DIRECTORY
|
|
|
|
Use this option to change where Tux Paint looks for personal
|
|
data files (brushes, stamps, starters and fonts specific to
|
|
the current user).
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint will search for subdirectories/subfolders named
|
|
"brushes", "stamps", "starters" and "fonts" under the data
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
If you do not override it, the default location is:
|
|
* Linux & Unix - Under a hidden directory named ".tuxpaint"
|
|
in your home directory (aka "~" or "$HOME")
|
|
Example: "/home/username/.tuxpaint/brushes/"
|
|
|
|
* Windows - Inside a folder named "TuxPaint" in your
|
|
"Application Data" folder.
|
|
Example:
|
|
"C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\TuxPaint\brushes\"
|
|
|
|
* Mac OS X - Inside a folder named "TuxPaint" in your
|
|
"Application Support" folder.
|
|
Example:
|
|
"/Users/Username/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/brushes/"
|
|
|
|
Note: Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux Paint would use the same
|
|
setting or default as for "savedir" to search for data files.
|
|
As of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately.
|
|
|
|
Note: When specifying a Windows drive (e.g., "H:\"), you must
|
|
also specify a subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
Example: datadir=/home/johnny/tuxpaint-data/
|
|
|
|
saveover=yes
|
|
This disables the "Save over the old version...?" prompt when
|
|
saving an existing file. With this option, the older version
|
|
will always be replaced by the new version, automatically.
|
|
|
|
saveover=new
|
|
This also disables the "Save over the old version...?" prompt
|
|
when saving an existing file. This option, however, will
|
|
always save a new file, rather than overwrite the older
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
saveover=ask
|
|
|
|
(This option is redundant, since this is the default.)
|
|
|
|
When saving an existing drawing, you will be first asked
|
|
whether to save over the older version or not.
|
|
|
|
nosave=yes
|
|
This disables Tux Paint's ability to save files (and therefore
|
|
disables the on-screen "Save" button). It can be used in
|
|
situations where the program is only being used for fun, or in
|
|
a test environment.
|
|
|
|
autosave=yes
|
|
This prevents Tux Paint from asking whether you want to save
|
|
the current picture when quitting, and assumes you do.
|
|
|
|
startblank=yes
|
|
This causes Tux Paint to display a blank canvas when it first
|
|
starts up, rather than loading the last image that was being
|
|
edited.
|
|
|
|
colorfile=FILENAME
|
|
|
|
You may override Tux Paint's default color palette by creating
|
|
a plain ASCII text file that describes the colors you want,
|
|
and pointing to that file using the colorfile option.
|
|
|
|
The file should list one color per line. Colors are defined in
|
|
terms of their Red, Green and Blue values, each from 0 (off)
|
|
to 255 (brightest). (For more information, try Wikipedia's
|
|
"RGB color model" article.)
|
|
|
|
Colors may be listed using three decimal numbers (e.g.,
|
|
"255 68 136") or a 6- or 3-digit-long hexadecimal 'triplet'
|
|
(e.g., "#ff4488" or "#F48").
|
|
|
|
After the color definition (on the same line) you may enter
|
|
text to describe the color. Tux will display this text when
|
|
the color is clicked. (For example, "#FFF White as snow.")
|
|
|
|
As an example, you can see the default colors currently used
|
|
in Tux Paint in: "default_colors.txt".
|
|
|
|
NOTES: You must separate decimal values with spaces, and begin
|
|
hexadecimal values with a pound/number-sign character ("#").
|
|
In 3-digit hexadecimal, each digit is used for both the high
|
|
and low halves of the byte, so "#FFF" is the same as
|
|
"#FFFFFF", not "#F0F0F0".
|
|

Overriding System Config. Options using .tuxpaintrc
|
|
|
|
(For Linux and Unix users)
|
|
|
|
If any of the above options are set in
|
|
"/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.config", you can override them in your own
|
|
"~/.tuxpaintrc" file.
|
|
|
|
For true/false options, like "noprint" and "grab", you can simply say
|
|
they equal 'no' in your "~/.tuxpaintrc" file:
|
|
|
|
noprint=no
|
|
uppercase=no
|
|
|
|
Or, you can use options similar to the command-line override options
|
|
described below. For example:
|
|
|
|
print=yes
|
|
mixedcase=yes
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Command-Line Options
|
|
|
|
Options can also be issued on the command-line when you start
|
|
Tux Paint.

--locale LOCALE
|
|
|
|
Run Tux Paint in one of the support languages. See the
|
|
"Choosing a Different Language" section below for the locale
|
|
strings (e.g., "de_DE" for German) to use.
|
|
|
|
(If your locale is already set, e.g. with the "$LANG"
|
|
environment variable, this option is not necessary, since
|
|
Tux Paint honors your environment's setting, if possible.)

Under Linux and Unix, this prevents the system-wide
|
|
configuration file, "/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf", from
|
|
being read.
|
|
|
|
Only your own configuration file, "~/.tuxpaintrc", if it
|
|
exists, will be used.

|
|
Tux Paint doesn't actually start up and run afterwards, however.
|
|
|
|
--version
|
|
--verbose-version
|
|
Display the version number and date of the copy of
|
|
Tux Paint you are running. The "--verbose-version" also
|
|
lists what compile-time options were set. (See INSTALL.txt
|
|
and FAQ.txt).
|
|
|
|
--copying
|
|
Show brief license information about copying Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
--usage
|
|
Display the list of available command-line options.
|
|
|
|
--help
|
|
Display brief help on using Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
--lang help
|
|
Display a list of available languages in Tux Paint.
|
|

|
Choosing a Different Language
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint has been translated into a number of languages. To access
|
|
the translations, you can use the "--lang" option on the command-line
|
|
to set the language (e.g. "--lang spanish") or use the "lang=" setting
|
|
in the configuration file (e.g., "lang=spanish").
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint also honors your environment's current locale. (You can
|
|
override it on the command-line using the "--locale" option; see
|
|
above.)
|
|
|
|
Use the option "--lang help" to list the available language options
|
|
available.

(*) - These languages require their own fonts, since they are not
|
|
represented using a Latin character set, like the others. See the
|
|
"Special Fonts" section, below.
|
|
|
|
Note: Tux Paint provides an alternative input method for entering
|
|
characters with the Text tool in some locales. The key comibation(s)
|
|
listed can be used to cycle through the supported input methods
|
|
while the Text tool is active.
|
|
|
|
Setting Your Environment's Locale
|
|
|
|
Changing your locale will affect much of your environment.
|
|
|
|
As stated above, along with letting you choose the language at
|
|
runtime using command-line options ("--lang" and "--locale"),
|
|
Tux Paint honors the global locale setting in your environment.
|
|
|
|
If you haven't already set your environment's locale, the following
|
|
will briefly explain how:
|
|
|
|
Linux/Unix Users
|
|
|
|
First, be sure the locale you want to use is enabled by editing
|
|
the file "/etc/locale.gen" on your system and then running the
|
|
program "locale-gen" as root.
|
|
|
|
Note: Debian users may be able to simply run the command
|
|
"dpkg-reconfigure locales" as root to bring up a configuration
|
|
dialog. Ubuntu users may be able to run
|
|
"sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf" (the "localeconf" package may
|
|
need to be installed first), or may need to edit the file
|
|
"/var/lib/locales/supported.d/local" first, and add locales they
|
|
want, from the list found in "/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED".
|
|
|
|
Then, before running Tux Paint, set your "$LANG" environment
|
|
variable to one of the locales listed above. (If you want all
|
|
programs that can be translated to be, you may wish to place the
|
|
following in your login script; e.g. ~/.profile, ~/.bashrc,
|
|
~/.cshrc, etc.)
|
|
|
|
For example, in a Bourne Shell (like BASH):
|
|
|
|
export LANG=es_ES ; \
|
|
tuxpaint
|
|
|
|
And in a C Shell (like TCSH):
|
|
|
|
setenv LANG es_ES ; \
|
|
tuxpaint
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Windows Users
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint will recognize the current locale and use the
|
|
appropriate files by default. So this section is only for people
|
|
trying different languages.
|
|
|
|
The simplest thing to do is to use the '--lang' switch in the
|
|
shortcut (see "INSTALL.txt"). However, by using an MSDOS Prompt
|
|
window, it is also possible to issue a command like this:
|
|
|
|
set LANG=es_ES
|
|
|
|
...which will set the language for the lifetime of that DOS
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
For something more permanent, try editing your computer's
|
|
'autoexec.bat' file using Windows' "sysedit" tool:
|
|
|
|
Windows 95/98
|
|
|
|
1. Click on the 'Start' button, and select 'Run...'.
|
|
2. Type "sysedit" into the 'Open:' box (with or without quotes).
|
|
3. Click 'OK'.
|
|
4. Locate the AUTOEXEC.BAT window in the System Configuration
|
|
Editor.
|
|
5. Add the following at the bottom of the file:
|
|
|
|
set LANG=es_ES
|
|
|
|
6. Close the System Configuration Editor, answering yes to save
|
|
the changes.
|
|
7. Restart your machine.
|
|
|
|
To affect the entire machine, and all applications, it is
|
|
possible to use the "Regional Settings" control panel:
|
|
|
|
1. Click on the 'Start' button, and select
|
|
'Settings | Control Panel'.
|
|
2. Double click on the "Regional Settings" globe.
|
|
3. Select a language/region from the drop down list.
|
|
4. Click 'OK'.
|
|
5. Restart your machine when prompted.
|
|
|
|
Special Fonts
|
|
|
|
Some languages require special fonts be installed. These font files
|
|
(which are in TrueType format (TTF)), are much too large to include
|
|
with the Tux Paint download, and are available separately. (See the
|
|
table above, under the "Choosing a Different Language" section.)
|
|
|
|
Note: As of version 0.9.18, Tux Paint uses the "SDL_Pango" library,
|
|
which utilizes the "Pango" library to render text in the user
|
|
interface, rather than using "SDL_ttf" directly. Unless your copy of
|
|
Tux Paint was built without Pango support, special fonts should no
|
|
longer be necessary.
|
|
|
|
When running Tux Paint in a language that requires its own font,
|
|
Tux Paint will try to load the font file from its system-wide
|
|
"fonts" directory (under a "locale" subdirectory). The name of the
|
|
file corresponds to the first two letters in the 'locale' code of
|
|
the language (e.g., "ko" for Korean, "ja" for Japanese, "zh_tw" for
|
|
Traditional Chinese).
|
|
|
|
For example, under Linux or Unix, when Tux Paint is run in Korean
|
|
(e.g., with the option "--lang korean"), Tux Paint will attempt to
|
|
load the following font file:
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/tuxpaint/fonts/locale/ko.ttf
|
|
|
|
You can download fonts for supported languages from Tux Paint's
|
|
website, http://www.tuxpaint.org/. (Look in the 'Fonts' section
|
|
under 'Download.')
|
|
|
|
Under Unix and Linux, you can use the Makefile that comes with the
|
|
font to install the font in the appropriate location.
