Well, you certainly do need to know how to install a Python plug-in in order to run it, of course. And you'd need to learn how to hack Python plug-ins in order to modify it. So maybe this is a great excuse to learn! Googling finds several useful howtos and tutorials, e.g. http://blog.meetthegimp.org/how-to-install-python-plugins-under-gimp/ http://www.exp-media.com/gimp-python-tutorial http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-autogimp/ ...Akkana ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

[Gimp-developer] Export all (was: Gimp Export Properties Not Preserved)

That is such a good idea that I wanted to dive in right away and write it. But unfortunately I have too many things on my plate right now and I can't write the whole thing. So instead, I wrote a skeleton for it. It brings up an ugly dialog showing all the open images with their filenames and full pathnames, and a toggle button so you can disable saving/exporting for that particular image. You can also edit the filename to change the extension -- e.g. if the filename comes up as foo.xcf, you can change it to .jpg and export it that way. Any images that are exported will be marked clean (so you don't get a nag screen when you exit). Obviously this isn't the nice full-featured plug-in you had in mind, but it implements the basics so anyone can add to it, and I'm hoping people will. Make the dialog pretty, add proper file choosers, add parameters like the jpeg quality, whatever you think it needs! So, anyone who wants an "Export all" plug-in, please add the features you want and send patches.
