In order to change the "gimp-comment" you must change a parasite that is
attached to the image. The following code defines a function that will
set the 'gimp-comment' parasite to the passed string. (Note: I don't
have access to the GIMP right now, so I haven't tested it; though I
think it will work.)
Include the function definition in your file (I recommend inserting it
right after the '(define (batch-test pattern)' line) and replace your
(set! gimp-comment "Some Test Text")
with
(add-comment image "Some Test Text")
;;----------------------------------------------------------
;; 'add-comment' attaches "gimp-comment" parasite to 'image'
;; with the value of the passed 'string'
;;
(define (add-comment image string)
(*catch 'errobj
(gimp-image-parasite-find image "gimp-comment")
(if (not (null? errobj))
(gimp-image-parasite-detach image "gimp-comment")
)
)
(gimp-image-parasite-attach (list "gimp-comment"
3
(bytes-append string)))
)
