Got it. Sort of.
OK. If I select (highlight) a given *.NEF x-nikon-nef file inside geeqie
and then send it to UFRaw instead of gimp I can manipulate the image in
UFRaw. Once I have the image looking as best I can make in in
UFRaw-------------------------------------I can then send it to Gimp by
clicking a gimp icon in the lower right hand corner of the UFRaw window.
This accomplishes what I wanted. It would have taken me days to figure
this out on my own.
I depend on geeqie. It's wonderful software. Best way to quickly browse
through large directories of recently exposed raw image files. Perhaps the
Gimp developers should figure out how to make geeqie a front end image
browsing plugin for gimp.
Thank you all.
