I have chosen to initialize them to -1 in this example as that is the value that is used for an invalid image or buffer ID in GIMP.

Could someone help? This is explained in the release notes for GIMP 2.6: http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.6.html Thanks ... I think :-) found the example and perused the linked PDF (section 4.2.2. Binding constructs) with out much if any understanding. I changed: (define (save-layer orig-image layer name) (let* ( (image) (buffer) ) to: (define (save-layer orig-image layer name) (let* ( (this-is-correct 0) (image) (buffer) ) I'd expected that this would still choke on the (image) and (buffer) bindings (terminology(?)) so I guess that let* syntax just requires at least one variable-init pair? Anyhow, it works now :-) P.S.: Offtopic - I noticed in your reply that you sent it to "my address" with cc. to the list. I got only one copy (I think because Gmail suppresses the extra).
