Huh?
The Gimp-Developer Mailing list is *not* about personal insulting
people you apparently don't like.
While the approach taken by Robin - b
So Adam, what kept from doing so this time?
Anyone who a) doesn't know what regular expressions are, and b) thinks a

Robin,
I called you right the first time. You don't know jack about much, and
nothing about the rest of it. You're to green to phathom, let alone be
embarassed, by your suggestion to remove regular expressions. This is *nix,
and that's how *nix works. That's why *nix works. And GIMP is an

I wish! Sometime later.
Although regex is available with *nix, it isn't part of Windows. My choice
is to remove it or fix the broken regex implemenation included in Film Gi

to look up plug-ins using regexec. I'm having a little difficulty
