Greetings, Unlike most users of GIMP, I use the program for palaeographic research on ancient texts; it's faster and more efficient than any program I have tried (incl. Photoshop). In working with ancient writing systems on the photographic level, something that would be very helpful is a transparent hash scheme, like graph paper, that can be set over the photo.
After searching several places, I have not found anything like this and would like to develop one in Perl. My plan is to give the user a choice of graph color (i.e., lighter for darker backgrounds and vice versa). The scale of the graph should be adjustable by the user and should adapt to the zoom level in use. Does anyone have suggestions on how to go about doing this? I am very new to Perl (<2 mo) and am very unsure of the programming strategy one would take for this. Thanks for any and all help.
