Hi Alchemie and Gimp Users, Ah, I got it. It happened to me yesterday when I installed a package of scripts.
For example, "add-bevel.scm" comes from two sources. It was in the system directory and this new package of scripts, which I installed in my home Gimp directory. This is a first for me. The scripts content were different, but I don't know Gimp scripting well enough to determine the impact of those differences. I did a quick "fix" and tacked a 2 on the end of the appropriate source code line(s). I see both of them in Gimp's Help / Procedure Browser, and it looks like the second one has an additional Parameter. They are both in the menu, and they both work. I noticed there wasn't any version info listed in the Procedure Browser. I suppose, unless one is writing scripts, the name could be anything. The copy in the system directory is not going away. If a user wants to install a script into their home directory, but it has the same internal name, is there a better way to handle this? Thank you.
