bbbm1 (GTK1 version)

bbbm1 is basically the same as bbbm, only written for GTK1 instead of GTK2. Therefore, it has some limitations, such as not being able to add multiple images at one. It has as much of the functionality as bbbm as possible.

Because bbbm is now written in C and can also run without problems on older machines (successfully tested with RedHat 7.3),
bbbm1 is discontinued as of now.

Requirements:

• Python 1.5.2 or higher.
• PyGTK1. bbbm1 is created with PyGTK 0.6.9, but should work with any PyGTK1 version.
• GTK1.
• Imlib.
• ImageMagick for creating the thumbnails.

Although the name would suggest that Blackbox is needed, any command to set the background can be used. GQView is the default image viewer, but this can be changed as well.
