You will have to manually search the list of layers for the one with
the matching name.
The following function will do so for a given image, returning the
layerID (or "0" if not found).
(define (find-layer-by-name image s)
(let* (
(layer's (vector->list (cadr (gimp-image-get-layers image))))
(found 0)
)
(while (pair? layer's)
(if (string=? s (car (gimp-layer-get-name (car layer's))))
(set! found (car layer's))
)
(set! layer's (cdr layer's))
)
found
)
)
