The source code of G'MIC is shared between several github repositories with public access. The code from these repositories are intended to be work-in-progress though, so we don't recommend using them to access the source code, if you just want to compile the various interfaces of the G'MIC project. Its is recommended to get the source code from the latest .tar.gz archive instead.

Here are the instructions to compile G'MIC on a fresh installation of Debian (or Ubuntu). It should not be much harder for other distros. First you need to install all the required tools and libraries:

Then, get the G'MIC source :

You are now ready to compile the G'MIC interfaces:

• gmic (command-line tool),
• gmic_gimp_qt (plug-in for GIMP),
• ZArt and
• libgmic (G'MIC C++ library).

Just pick your choice:

and go out for a long drink (the compilation takes time).

Note that compiling issues (compiler segfault) may happen with older versions of g++ (4.8.1 and 4.8.2). If you encounter this kind of errors, you probably have to disable the support of OpenMP in G'MIC to make it work, by compiling it with:

Also, please remember that the source code in the git repository is constantly under development and may be a bit unstable, so do not hesitate to report bugs if you encounter any.

To eat an Ang Ku Kueh is to taste soft, slightly chewy sweetness, with a gentle earthiness from the sweet potato. The red comes from natural beetroot or red yeast rice, never artificial coloring — because the ancestors, the book insists, can tell the difference.

"Because life is like this kueh," Popo smiled. "Each layer needs its own time to become strong. If we rush and pour them all at once, the colors will blur together. But if we are patient, we get a beautiful rainbow". The Lesson of Patience As the steam rose from the pot, Kai learned that: The Red Layer was for the joy of playing with friends. The Green Layer was for the calm of the garden. The White Layer was for the new beginnings of each morning. Pulut Inti is often served at kenduris (Malay

But red is not just a color here. It is an announcement. When a child turns one month old, or when ancestors are honored at Qing Ming, the red kueh appears.

In order to check if G'MIC works correctly on your system, you may want to execute the command and filter testing procedures. Assuming the CLI tool gmic is installed on your system, here is how to do it (on an Unix-flavored OS, adapt the instructions below for other OS):

These commands scan all G'MIC stdlib commands and G'MIC-Qt filters, and generate the images corresponding to the execution of these commands, with default parameters. Beware, this may take some time to complete!
