How To Fill or Delete Within A Bordered Area?
#1
I have a letter I've drawn as an image.  It is like hollow - you know?  It is a 'G' drawn like with parallel lines you know?

  And I want to clean out the area inside the lines - i.e. inside the letter itself - and clean out the area outside the lines which is supposed to be already 'cleaned out'  i.e. erased,  but isn't.

The border, the outline, of the letter is nice thick black.

 I have the idea that gimp will somehow recognise the difference between that black and select all the area within, like between the lines, within the actual letter, so's I can flood fill it or erase it - and do the same on the other side of the border and erase everything to the edges of the canvas so's I've just got the letter left.

 Is that right or am I remembering some other prog somewhere?

 Can it be done easily or do I have to go all around my letter again with the lasso or the path tool or something and make a selection that way?
