GIMP query

I realise this isn't relevant to Commons, but a lot of people here use GIMP and I'm hoping someone might know the answer to this: in File → Open Recent, the dropdown of recently opened files is only the latest 10 files, which is woefully inadequate for keeping track when I'm working on multiple files. Is there any way of increasing this to a more useful list of the most recent 40 or 50 files? Thanks! - MPF (talk) 16:00, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

If you work on Linux, you should read this thread. Basically, edit ~/.gimp-2.8/gimprc and add this line (last-opened-size 40) (replace 40 by the desired number). Pamputt (talk) 12:15, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
@Pamputt: thanks; unfortunately not; I'm using firefox & apple. Can something similar be done there too? - MPF (talk) 21:41, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
