Re: merging Electric Eyes and GIMP

[*MoNsTeR* <yetter uswest net>]

the original reason I posted my suggestion for making eeyes a gimp plugin
was Raster's README file:

...
it is intended as an IMAGE VIEWER NOT AS AN EDITOR. If you want editing
USE THE GIMP! I have no plans on adding plugins ever. If someone wants ot
make is slow to load up and add gimp plugin support - you can do it later.
...

now perhaps my suggestion to make eeyes a gimp plugin was taken to mean,
"ditch the standalone prog and just make it a plugin for gimp", which is
not what I meant (well, it's not what I mean now, anyway :)

how about this instead: we keep eeyes as it is, but take the color editor
and make a gimp plugin out of it, and add to it (the plugin and the
standalone) until they're as featureful as xv's color editor, which lets
you do all these things:
- RGB modification (eeyes has this, and done much better, imho)
-overall modification (eeyes has this too)
-alter specific entries in the colormap
-saturation gauge
-alter the value of "white"
-HSV modification (whatever that is :)
-manual adjustment of color graph (which is no big deal considering eeyes'
 awesome color adjustment already, the only reason a manual graph would be
 better would be if you were infinitely picky, or wanted to use
 y=x(sin(x)) as your graph or something)
