Thanks G2 and Mark - hope this gets into 1.0.5
I recently got a 3 button mouse (wheel mouse in fact) Using this I can zoom in and out of MtPaint. That is neat. My other favourite trick is making screenshots (from the Puppy menu - graphic processing / Mtpaint screenshot) and then resizing the box around a section - then pressing delete - now I just have that section.
Then I rescale by about 80% (image /scale canvas) before uploading to this forum for example . . .
Any other favourite tips anyone?

i uploaded a new dotpup which includes the language files and the mtpaint readme file
Portugese does not seem to work in Puppy
a 3 button mouse is a necessity for Linux
a wheel mouse is not essential but very convenient
if you have Icewm installed, you can press ctrl+alt+P
drag the mouse to select a rectangular area
then click Image, Crop
the picture will be the selected area

i should have read the documentation more carefully
one problem i have had with the last few versions of Mtpaint, is i couldn't compile it for 386's ... i compiled it for the default 586
(i don't know whether it makes much difference ... it might if it uses the mmx/sse coprocessor much ... otherwise, compiling for a 386 means it will run on more machines, and i suspect the binary would be smaller and faster than a binary compiled for a 686)

d'oh
i was doing something something stupid like
./configure --cpu=386 gtk2 intl
why i don't know ... it compiled ok before because i used the 386 option correctly
the 386 version is about 4% smaller than the 586 version ... i guess i won't bother to re-upload the dotpup compiled for 386's ... but if anyone wants the 386 version, i can upload it
anyway, it was compiled using Puppy 1.0.5rc, with no problems
