I'm trying to use the Gimp 1.04 that came with RH 6.1 Linux. First off,
I'm getting the message "script-fu not available: batch mode disabled"
at startup. I've looked through the FAQ's and have figured out more or
less what script-fu is, but not why I'm getting this error message.
What do I need to do to get this message to go away.
Second, I'm trying to open bitmap files and am getting the following
message: "Open filed mybmp.bmp" Electric Eyes is able to open these
bitmaps okay. I believe that they are saved in the number of color just
greater than 256 (16k?), they are screenshots from MS-Windows that I'd
like to convert to .jpg's. I downloaded the bmp plugin. I then did a
make, and a make install. Apparently, there isn't an install section in
the makefile, there isn't a README either. At any rate, it appears to
make a bmp executable file. Where should I put this file?
I get a similar message when I try to open .jpg files. I can't find a
plugin for .jpg files though.
