Distros often have versions of software that are older than what may be available from the official site for a given program. They do it for any number of reasons. Some distros prefer to use only what they consider tried and tested software. Other distros provide software versions that are closer to the latest. Those distros can be for the more "adventurous types" or those that need to be running close to the current releases of software. You have some options. You can build the latest version of GIMP yourself but if you aren't used to building software it is not a trivial task to do it the first time. You can for a PPA for GIMP. That will let you install and update GIMP the same way you install other packages on your machine. The other option is to check the GIMP website for a downloadable file that will give you the latest version available.

The other option is to pull the image in to something like Inkscape or a word processing program where you can position and size the image as needed to have it appear on the printed page where you want it. -- Cheers!

If you are writing a script where you want to right click an image and run your script from the menu that will pop up you can set up your script so the image ID and drawable ID are automatically passed to your script. In the script-fu-register block where you have the list of SF-* parameters, you add two lines right before any other SF-* parameters: SF-IMAGE "Image"0 SF-DRAWABLE"Drawable" 0 In the define for your script you would add "image" and "drawable" as the first two parameters expected by your script. You can use any variable names you want in place of "image" and "drawable". If your define was (define (my-script-fu-script param1 param2) you would change it to (define (my-script-fu-script image drawable param1 param2) The variable name "image" will automatically be set to the ID of the image that you right clicked. -- Cheers!

I've only looked briefly at your script. Nothing obvious jumps out at me. I'd look at the return values from the function calls. Some operations can change the ID's of layers or drawables and you need to use the new ID's for later operations. I don't see why you used file globbing to get the alpha mask image. BTW, you can combine car and cadr in to one operation. In Script-Fu scripts you can have up to four letters between c and r for things like car, cadr, up all variations from cr to cr. -- Cheers!

Apart from that, the procedure browser does provide a (mostly?) complete documentation of the library. Granted, it would be nice if GIMP included a more powerful Lisp (such as ECL, Embeddable Common Lisp), but Script-Fu's Tinyscheme is surprisingly fun to program in. There have been discussions where people have said GIMP should use a more complete Scheme implementation. Guile was mentioned in particular in those discussions. SF has tried to stay small by using a small Scheme interpreter. It let's you automate tasks in GIMP and you can do some reasonably complex tasks. However, it does have its limitations and there are times when a more full featured programming language is useful. To that end, there other language bindings available one can use. -- Cheers!

I know python and I know scheme (and a lot of other languages, if that

python, but I broke, since I just can't get used to python's lambda's.
Due to the indentation syntax, defining lambda's seems to be very
ambiguous to me.
If you know Scheme then you know the Scheme of Script-Fu. The TinyScheme
interpreter used in Script-Fu follows the official Scheme standard as
documented in the R5RS but it is not a full implementation of R5RS.
I finally started learning to work with Python by writing a new GUI for
avrdude using wxGlade and wxPython. I don't find using indentation in Python
to be much of a problem (so far) but doing the GUI doesn't use much of
Python. I might have more issues with it when I do something more
complicated. The general rule seems to be that you indent anywhere you would
have used { } if one was writing in C.
What about perl? how stable are perl's bindings to gimp?
They are so stable you could measure the dust that has settled on the
bindings in inches. ;)
The gimp-perl binding is in need of a lot of TLC. It really needs a complete
overhaul. It has not been kept up-to-date with changes in GIMP. I have too
many other projects on my plate so I haven't touched the Perl binding in a
long time.
Isn't script-fu the _primary_ scripting language for gimp? How comes
that python, which is working on top of the primary language can be more
reliable than the primary language?
Script-Fu has been part of GIMP for many years. Whatever operating system
you are running when you use GIMP, Script-Fu is there. Other bindings, such
as Python, rely on external programs or packages (e.g. a Python
interpreter). Some operating systems ship with Python already installed and
some do not (or have not in the past). That has been addressed in some cases
by the GIMP installer including the option to install Python if a user needs it.
The Python, Perl, and Ruby language bindings (to name three bindings) do not
operate on top of Script-Fu. They are completely independent of Script-Fu.
Any language binding can still invoke a procedure supplied as part of
Script-Fu if desired.
Maybe my best bet would be cl-magick? Unfortunately, all the links on
http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-magick/ seem to be dead :-(
