“I really appreciate that there is a control panel utility that allows you to simplify the user interface for younger users, or enable advanced features for older kids. This is a program that will grow with your children.” — Download Squad, October 2006

Source Archives

Linux and Unix (e.g., Solaris) users can use these source-code archives to compile and install Tux Paint. (Note that binary packages are already available for many Linux distributions.)

Developers are probably more interested in checking out the Tux Paint source through CVS.

See the Requirements page for a list of library dependencies. Note: You'll also need the development packages for each library (e.g., the "libsdl-devel" package in Debian Linux, not just "libsdl1.2".)
