to detect syntax errors, just try to run your plug-ina s a normal Python program - Syntax errors will be flagged normally - i the program is well formed, it will fail with an import error when trying to import gimp or gimpfu As fro runtime erros, just watch the normal error output of GIMP on the terminal. (the good news is taht for fixing these errors, you just have to re-run the plugin from inside GIMP< no need to reinstall or relaod anything). js -><- > > Is there a way to have gimp relay python errors? > > I have also noticed that the python plugins will not run outside of gimp > with the standard python interpreter (can't find the gimp imports). > > Is there something I'm missing?
