I wrote a few scripts for manipulating guides using scheme (one to add a guide at specified pixel position and another to add guides based on a percentage of the image size, some of them are included in Gimp 2.2 see Image, Guides, ...). Maybe if you are repeating the same task a lot these are to generalised? I suppose could rewrite the Centre Guides script in Python (nevermind, Jaoa has done it already). Thing is I would have rewritten it i Scheme already except that I was not convinced anyone would actually want to use this script. I would be very interested to know why exactly is the centre guides script useful? More importantly, what bigger problem are you trying to solve? You mention you are also interested in extending the script to divide the image into thirds, which makes me seriously think there is something bigger going on you aren't telling us about. With more information we might be able to offer an even better answer, and solve the bigger problem rather than only treating the symptoms.
