unable to open swap-file

2000-03-31 Thread Matthias Kleine

Hi there!

I just compiled and started gimp-1.1.18. 

When I open a pic now or create a new one, I get an error message
"unable to open swap-file... BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN SOON".

Well, what is the correct option or permission to allow the gimp to
open a swap file?

Thanks for any hints.

Matthias

gimp/perl problem on solaris

2000-03-31 Thread Mike Markowski

Hi all,

When I try to start gimp on a Solaris 8 box, I get these errors
regarding something called _eprintf.  Does any know what I'm missing?
(I seem to not be linking with whatever library contains eprintf,
but I don't know which that would be...)

Thanks for any and all ideas!
Mike

Re: Script-Fu beginner...

Ok, this works if you work interactively, when you open the files by
yourself and right click on the image and select the script. But my
problem is that I want it to work in batch mode, so I have to open the
images in the script.

I can use a script to open the images and call another one to do the
dirty job, passing the references to the images and to the drawables
(like you mentioned). So my problem is this: how can I open a file
(within a script) and get a reference to the background layer ?

Thanks a lot!

Gimp beginner questions

2000-03-31 Thread Eric Goforth

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.
