Are there any plans to compile Gimp Python for Win32? I'd be happy to use it!
Oh gosh... I forgot it doesn't run on Windows yet.
It must be because of fairly minor details...but I can not check for them simply because I have no windows.
I will try and contact someone who could check for it.
In order to get Python plug-ins for GIMP on Win32, you need:
1. Python You can use ActviePython, probably the most common Python distribution for Win32: http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePython/
2. PyGTK The python binding to GTK+. Available as installers from http://www.pcpm.ucl.ac.be/~gustin/win32_ports/
3. PyGIMP itself Built using the distutils tools, which are part of Python (and not the current autotools build).
4. A fix for bug 98737 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98737 Basically, glib can't run scripts on win32 right now.
I did step 3 myself (the resulting setup.py is rather poor, though) and use a modification to gimp's plug-in handling code to get around step 4.
PyGTK can be built without problems if you have a build environment that allows ou to build GIMP, so it can probably serve as an example on how to create a proper PyGIMP distutils build.
