I've also had a look at https://gmic.eu/tutorial/basics.html
which contains some fairly nice examples.

This is an updated port of "base gmic" with a few cosmetic changes
and some extra scaffolding (the cosmetic changes are mostly to avoid
jlooding /tmp with temp files... hopefully upstream will make temp
files handling less 1960 fortran-like)

What's new and really exciting are the plugins, built using qt, that
can talk to either gimp or krita.

I initially wrote a port with flavors, but since both builds are 100%
independent, it makes more sense to have two "subports" with the
common parts as a Makefile.inc

Once built and installed, the filters are accessible from
the "filters" menu in either gimp or krita.  I haven't done any
extensive tests in krita, since I'm unfamiliar with the software,
but the gimp filters seem operational (though I can't figure out what
some of them do... there are something like 560 new operations !)

As far as I know, g'mic is frequently mentionned in the top 10 gimp
add-ons, so it would be a shame to NOT have it...

so I'm looking for actual okays to import this.
