[Scribus] CinePaint

Frank,

I'm a huge fan of Paintshop Pro version 5. I love it's speed and elegant 
simplicity.

Doesn't GIMP support Python? CinePaint does and we reused their code for 
that.

DnD is an area where CinePaint needs improvement.

> Sure wish Gimp or Scribus has a built-in image browser.

CinePaint is adding an image browser later this year, either by adapting 
flphoto or creating from scratch. Instead of a built-in image browser we 
want to share it as a program with DnD across apps.

Cheers,
