Jon Seniors observation gave me an idea. UFRaw appears in geeqie's
external editors menu for me. So I tried it. Geeqie sends *.NEF just
fine to UFRaw.
But for some reason not to gimp, which uses UFRaw when the incoming file is
*.NEF or *.nef
Not sure what that means. Or how the plugin mechanism works in Gimp. Is
UFRaw really a plugin for gimp, or does Gimp start UFRaw up as a full
fledged process, and then capture its output?
Perhaps this is indeed more of a Gimp question.
