Re: [Gimp-user] gimp 2.2 -> 2.4, python-fu: what's the difference?
Hi Joao; and first off, thanks a bunch for your pointer. :) Joao S. O.

Actually yes, that did resolve my problems. Seems copying the script across the machines somehow messed my charset up so python complained about illegal characters while starting up. Thanks loads for your help on that. :) Cheers, Kristian -- Kristian Rink * http://zimmer428.net * http://flickr.com/photos/z428/ jab: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * icq: 48874445 * fon: ++49 176 2447 2771 "One dreaming alone, it will be only a dream; many dreaming together is the beginning of a new reality."

You might just try to load your script with straight with python, to check for syntax errors, since if there is a python syntax error, gimp will just spill out an obscure uninformative error message instead of the traceback of the script. > > Sven > > > ___ > Gimp-user mailing list > Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU > https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Otherwise, as you see no "python" or "python-fu" entrie son you rmenus at all - it looks like you simply don-ṫ have gimp-python installed for your new gimp. (If ther eis no python-fu entry under your "xtns" menu on the toolbox, then it is really not there) If you are on Linux, just look for a package named "gimp-python" or similar. That said, an easy way to find out plug-ins when you don't know where in the menus they are, is to use the "plug-in browser" (which on 2.4 lives on the "Xtns" menu).

Well... to put it this way: As sure as can be: - The package seems to be installed in the appropriate version matching my Gimp: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ > dpkg -l|grep gimp-python ii gimp-python2.4.6-1ubuntu1~hardy1 Python support and plugins for GIMP - In Gimp, there is an "Extras" -> "Python-Fu" menu which, so far, just contains a "console". - Using the "Procedure browser" querying for python-fu leaves me finding a few entries, yet none of these provided by my own scripts... I actually would question my installation if it wasn't for these things... Could anything still be wrong here? Invoking the python console from within Gimp also works well, same as does "import gimpfu" in the python console. Anything else I could be overlooking so far? Platform is Ubuntu 8.04 by the way...
