Thanks for the response. That does seem to be the case: I can query the environment variables from within the python wrapper and I do get an abbreviated list when the wrapper is called from launchd.
I can configure the plist to alter the environment for the wrapper job, but that seems to be an extremely combersome mehod. For instance, if I add the path and successfully call GIMP, I get errors further down the dependency chain.. There are also a bunch of environment variables in /tmp/ that I can't hard wire into a plist. thanks again! -hc >launchd likely uses a sanitized environment where gimp is no longer in the PATH. Try adding the directory with gimp to PATH as the first step in your wrapper script. > >--xsdg > > >Heath Carlisle <for...@gimpusers.com> escribio: > >>Greeting: interesting scenario: >> >>I have a number of batch workflows, written in python, that run as python-fu plugins. >> >>Sample bash terminal command: >> >>gimp -ibdf '(python-fu-batch-colorRT RUN-NONINTERACTIVE \"*.JPG\")''(gimp-quit 1)' >> >>Opens each file and applies the plug in.
