FAQ: https://answers.launchpad.net/gasp-code/+faqs
Bugs/Patches Welcome: http://bugs.launchpad.net/gasp-code/+filebug
There is an excellent coursebook <http://openbookproject.net/pybiblio/gasp/>
which goes over learning to use GASP in your own applications, which is
designed to supplement (but can be used apart from)
<http://openbookproject.net/thinkCSpy/>, a full-fledged introduction to
the Python programming language.
DEPENDENCIES
======
GASP requires the following to function:
* python-cairo
* python-gobject
* python-gtk2
* python-multiprocessing (only on python 2.5)
GASP is tested with Python 2.5 and Python 2.6. Python 3.0 is unsupported at
this time.
