GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a free and open-source raster graphics editor used for creating and editing images. It is a command introduced in the command line interface to launch GIMP from the terminal or command prompt.

By entering the command "gimp" in the terminal, the software is executed, and the GIMP user interface opens, allowing you to perform various image editing tasks such as crop, resize, retouch, layer manipulation, color adjustment, and more.

Once the GIMP interface is open, you can access the different tools, menus, and features provided by the program to edit or create images according to your needs. Additionally, the command may have additional flags or options that you can specify alongside it to modify the behavior of the GIMP application when it launches. For example, you might use different flags to open a specific image file or to customize the workspace layout.

Overall, entering the "gimp" command in the command line interface is the initial step to run the GIMP software and start editing images.
