what os will you be using this on? carol I'm developping it for and under a Debian-testing system (on amd k7), and plan to use it possibly also on an Ubuntu Linux. I won't need windows support.

Why would it? By the way, I thought the batch mode only understood scheme, so it would make the whole thing even more complicated. One line of scheme to call your python script won't increase the complexity appreciably. I hope there is a simpler solution possible. Well, it's kind of hacky yes, but it's not *complex*. If you want something better, why don't you contribute it? -Yosh ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
