16    If you have made drawing or editing changes to the image which you
17    don't want to keep, the <guimenu>Undo</guimenu> command allows you to
18    undo the last change and return the image to its previous state.
19    Almost anything you do to an image can be
20    undone in this way (with the exception of scripts, which deactivate
21    this function). Further Undo operations may be performed, depending
22    upon the number of Undo levels configured in the
23      <link linkend="gimp-prefs-system-resources">System Resources</link>
24    page of the Preferences Dialog. See the section on
25    <link linkend="gimp-concepts-undo">Undoing</link>
26    for more information about <acronym>GIMP</acronym>'s
27    very sophisticated <quote>Undo</quote> functions.

30    The operation that has been <quote>undone</quote> is not lost
31    immediately: you can get it back by using the
32    <link linkend="gimp-edit-redo">Redo</link> command right away. But
33    if you perform another operation, the ability to <quote>Redo</quote> will
34    be irretrievably lost.
