imvho, an inline editor would be a real waste of time, unless you
embed an scintilla (or similar) editor into rawstudio, but i think
that might just make rawstudio a bigger and les prectical ball.. well,
i'm no rawstudio developer, so i'm not the appropiate person to say so
;)

On the other hand, if no api is exposed to the python scripting
feature, then i think it would be very limited... then that could be
easily achieved through a configurable stack of shell calls for
post-processing, instead. Anyway, that would already allow doing
things like batch copying of exif-info from originals to converted,
which is really interesting.

Sorry for intruding your threads, again ;)

Why doesn't anybody ask if all Danes are named Anders? :)

I think it's a nice idea - but as Mr. Egger, I feel we have bigger fish
to fry, but if Anders Lauritsen is up to the task, I see no reason to
stop him :)

Some discussion starters:

Should this scripting engine expose Rawstudios internal api to Python?
Should there be an inline text-editor for scripting?
Do we need to place hooks at appropiate functions? (load/save etc)
Does this go hand in hand with a plugin architecture?
Would it help to make a librawstudio?
Is Python easy to implement? Is this simply a problem of linking to the
appropriate python-libs? Will it result in (more) external dependencies?
