SYNOPSIS

mtpaint [option] [imagefile ... ]

DESCRIPTION

mtPaint is a \s-1GTK+1/2\s0 based painting program designed for creating icons and pixel based artwork. It can edit indexed palette or 24 bit \s-1RGB\s0 images and offers painting and palette manipulation tools. Its main file format is \s-1PNG\s0, although it can also handle \s-1JPEG\s0, \s-1GIF\s0, \s-1TIFF\s0, \s-1BMP\s0, \s-1XPM\s0, and \s-1XBM\s0 files. Due to its simplicity and lack of dependencies it runs well on GNU/Linux, Windows and older \s-1PC\s0 hardware. There is full documentation of mtPaint's features contained in a handbook. If you don't already have this, you can download it from the mtPaint website.
