That should make for some VERY NICE text support in future Gimps.Now you'll just have to support PSD Text Layers ;).

as a quick guess, I'd say you need to call "plug_in_c_astretch" since
that's how the plug-in is internally registered. Most documentation is
using hyphens here but that's just because most documentation deals
with Script-Fu which needs hyphens instead of underscores. However I
wonder why you are getting GIMP_PDB_EXECUTION_ERROR, since that should
be GIMP_PDB_CALLING_ERROR then.

[Gimp-developer] Non-interactive plug-in calls (cross-posted to comp.graphics.apps.gimp)
Here's a newbie question about non-interactive plug-in calls:
I'm writing a (C) plug-in in which I intend to call another plug-in
non-interactively prior to doing my own processing. I copy the active
layer, and since the images I'm dealing with all have an alpha channel I
make sure I'm dealing with the image background (rather than the alpha
mask); I then grab the drawable and image IDs from the scratch layer,
and then call a plug-in non-interactively.
I know my drawable is good, as I've succeeded in doing all the desired
processing after the plug-in call. In every plug-in that I've tried,
though, GIMP_PDB_EXECUTION_ERROR is returned from the plug-in call (I've
checked the plug-ins against the image to make sure that they work on
the image before I try
the call).
Here's the skeleton of my code around the non-interactive call:
activeLayer = gimp_image_get_active_layer(image);
workingLayer = gimp_layer_copy(activeLayer);
add_OK = gimp_image_add_layer(image, workingLayer, -1);
if((gimp_layer_get_edit_mask(workingLayer)))
setMaskOK = gimp_layer_set_edig_mask(workingLayer, 0);
bg_drawable = gimp_drawable_get(workingLayer);
imageID = gimp_drawable_image(bg_drawable->id);
// Call the desired plug-in -- returns GIMP_PDB_EXECUTION_ERROR
return_vals = gimp_run_procedure("plug-in-c-astretch",
&nreturn_vals,
GIMP_PDB_INT32,
GIMP_RUN_NONINTERACTIVE,
GIMP_PDB_IMAGE, imageID,
GIMP_PDB_DRAWABLE,
bg_drawable->id,
GIMP_PDB_END);
Any insight you'd be able to lend on this problem would be greatly
appreciated!
Thanks,
Cindy Huyser

Most probably I missed the hebrew-ft2 module because it is not listed in Pango's configure.in. Perhaps you could correct that.

Hebrew with vowel positioning has also been ported by me to ft2.

Keep it up. uhm, yes, that's the plan. The reality is however that PangoFT2 at the moment has the basic shaper which works well for lots of scripts but not so well for the more exotic ones. Then there's an arabic shaper that's been added in the latest release and that's it. If we want all the exotic scripts to render correctly, someone needs to port more PangoXft shaper modules to PangoFT2. Fortunately the porting is pretty straightforward.

And you get all the beautiful rendering of lots of exotic scripts! Imagine, now you will be able to render your APL programs in Gimp with comments in Chinese and Runes intermixed. 8-) This is really the way to go! Keep it up.
