NAME
twid - dabble in oils
SYNOPSIS
twid
DESCRIPTION
Twid is an oil paint program for bitmaps. Button 3 presents a palette
(menus of paints are unappetizing), and buttons 1 and 2 apply paint.
The palette contains a list of names of subpalettes. After making a
selection, depress again to display the subpalette. The palette names
are:
style Choose drawing style: ink (Rembrandt), point (Seurat), line
(Mondrian), curve (Matisse) and disk (Disney).
texture
selects a texture (paint) to be applied with the brush. The de‐
fault set of textures is sufficient for Lichtenstein. Use the
<new> button to create new ones: use button 1 (2) to select the
area under the cursor (its bitwise complement), and type a name
for twid to call it.
brush selects the brush size and shape. Predefined brushes are
square, for effects ranging from Dali to Van Gogh; to be more
modern use <new> (again, you must name the new brush).
buttons
By default, button 1 puts paint down and button 2 picks it up
again. This palette lets you change that behavior.
copy provides commands for moving and rotating sections of the pic‐
ture.
unix offers commands for reading and writing files, and exiting.
The current style, texture and brush are indicated in their palettes by
an asterisk ‘*'.
