  GIMP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GIMP originally stood for General Image Manipulation Program; in 1997, the name was changed to GNU Image Manipulation Program when it became an official GNU project.
The GIMP was intended as a free software replacement for Adobe Photoshop, which is the dominant bitmap editor in the printing and graphics industries.
This allows the writing of scripts and plugins for the GIMP which can then be used interactively; it is also possible to produce images in completely non-interactive ways (for example generating images for a webpage on the fly using CGI scripts) and for batch color correction and conversion of images.

And because the toolkit is released under an Open Source license, debugging applications and learning about GTK+ is easier than it would be with a proprietary toolkit.
