Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Wed, 08 May 1996 12:04:55 -0700 From: "Amancio Hasty Jr." Sender: owner-multimedia@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Anyone upto writing a tcl interface for GIMP? The reason that I am thinking is to be able to write meta filters so with one single command we could create cut out text or customizable filters . For instance , a given filter could be presented with a set of options which could be easily modified at run-time. If we do this we will have one hell of an image processing program. The latest version of tcl supports sockets connection and it should be "a piece of cacke" to create a routine to listen and handle the socket communications. There is other stuff like converting GIMP to use XIE instead of shared memory which will make the program more user friendly at the system level. http://www.xcf.berkeley.edu/~gimp/ Tnks, Amancio
