Hi Kristian -
there are no comaptibility changes in python-fu from gimp-2.2 to
gimp-2.4
You should watch the output of GIMP to the terminal to see if any
errors (like a syntax error due to a missplaced punctiation
character) is happening. 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).
