Quick and Dirty installation guide for Gimp Python Extensions (PyGimp + PyGtk) 1) make Gimp Script aware set PATHEXT=.py or set PATHEXT=%PATHEXT%;.py (this obviously needs to be set system-wide; place it in autoexec.bat on 9x or uses the System Properties on NT) 2) copying files destinations: (1) PYTHON\DLLs - to be found by Python (2) PYTHON\LIB - to be found by Python (3) GIMP\plug-ins - to be found by Gimp as plug-in gimp.pyd -> (1) _gtk.pyd -> (1) gimp*.py -> (2) gtkcons.py -> (2) gtk.py -> (2) GTKconst.py -> (2) GDK.py -> (2) plug-ins\*.py -> (3) 3) Run it. Next time starting Gimp should find your Python plug-ins under Xtns\Python-Fu or you should get error messages in the console window (probably a version mismatch between the pygimp binary and libgimp.dll) In this case stay tuned to let me update pygimp. 4) Read the documentation included in the doc directory. It is quite useful! Look at annotaded C plug-ins. Get "Writing a GIMP plug-in" at http://www.poboxes.com/kevint/gimp/doc/plugin-doc.html Additional there is a pygtk mailing list at pygtk@daa.com.au . Finally if you feel your question is intersting enough for me to read, you may try to drop me a note. But please keep in mind that support is neither my business nor my hobby. I may take the freedom to not even answer you mail ... 5) Known Issues - There seem to be a problems with the floating point delimiter. Setting it to "." even on German Windows works for me. Hans
