Expanded documentaion patch for Gimp Python (4.43 KB, patch)

Description Sylvain Fourmanoit 2006-04-27 07:52:26 UTC
The current Gimp Python documentation do not go to great lengths explaining how a Gimp Python plug-in can be called from Script-Fu; this adds a new section giving a simple working example and a couple of potentially non-trivial hints.

Both the Python Gimp and Script-Fu documentation are good, but it doesn't hurt to duplicate some information, and maybe close the gap a little: I feel that explaining how Python Gimp extensions can be called from the shell could prove useful to many non-gimp experts out there.

Thanks to Carol Spears <carol@gimp.org> for her help and feedback on this, and for explaining the basic idea in the first place:

Expanded documentaion patch for Gimp Python
Comment 2 Carol 2006-04-27 16:12:23 UTC
I am reassigning this to Product gimp-web.
Comment 3 Carol 2006-04-27 16:15:16 UTC
It was also assigned to component www.gimp.org.  It is user level documentation and I don't think it belongs on developer.gimp.org.

Also, I am changing the severity to major.
Comment 4 Carol 2006-04-27 19:51:57 UTC
I had no idea that the sgml is contained within gimp source.

Reassigning this bug to GIMP product Help component.  I was uninformed enough to make my earlier changes.
Comment 5 Sven Neumann 2006-04-28 10:39:26 UTC
Carol, could you please stop wasting our time with your unqualified comments?

Setting the severity to enhancement request again and changing the component back to Gimp-Python because that's where the patch needs to be applied. The Help component is for the user manual.
