Gimp I* Hose Format
The gih format is use to store a series of pixmap brushes,
and some extra info for how to use them.
Basically, the format is real simple. It is a text header, followed
by a series of gpb files, all concatenated together.
The header format
================
First line is the name of the hose.
Second line is the number of brushes in file
ie
===========================
Fire
6
===========================
The rest is just gpb files catted in.
Making a gih file:
1. Create a series of gpb files. Note these do not
need to be the same size.
2. Create a text header like above.
3. Combine them all together:
cat header brush1.gpb brush2.gpb brush3.gpb > foo.gih
Thats about it for now.
Other bits:
==========
The spacing for the hose is currently based on the spacing
for the last brush in the hose.
WARNING:
=======
The header file format, and possible the entire file format
is likely to change.
