Description Alexey Eremenko 2005-08-16 18:17:01 UTC 
MS Windows (all version) include a very simple to use graphics editor. 
 
GNU/Linux systems until now delivered either difficult to use pro editors 
(GIMP), or very feature-lacking editors (XPaint, KPaint). 
 
Now all has changed. Now the OSS world can show "KDE KolourPaint" - the next 
generation simple graphics editor - a powerful competition to Microsoft's 
Paint, which delivers more features, while has easiest-in-the-world interface! 
 
Simple Paint program is a very essential component of any modern OS. 
Xandros and Fedora already incorporated it.
Comment 1 Alexey Eremenko 2005-08-16 19:00:50 UTC 
Currently it is included in kdegraphics3-imaging RPM package. 
 
However, due to the high importance of a simple graphics editor, 
I recommend to install it by default on a new SuSE Linux system.
Comment 2 Stephan Kulow 2005-08-17 08:06:35 UTC 
I disagree with your "Simple Paint program is a very essential component of 
any modern OS." statement. But I changed the wording of the 
kdegraphics3-imaging description to say simple paint instead of small paint, 
that's indeed a bit misleading
Comment 3 Alexey Eremenko 2005-08-26 15:01:47 UTC 
please at least include that package on the CDs.
