@eugenialoli Many thanks for this concise and useful list which I've kept for future reference. I already use GIMP and a couple of others. I don't understand several of the terms (e.g. raster manip, compositor, vector anim, anim) so will look those up. I'm trying to think of a descriptive name for the list so that my Copernic search facility can always find it.
@pacman101 i didn't have space to write longer descriptions, mastodon doesn't allow it, so I had to use smaller words. Anim is just animation, raster manip. means pixel editing in reality.
@eugenialoli Aaaah, OK. Many thanx.
