Instead it seems to be something different. While I would prefer an error log window myself (since it is soo convinient for older messages), I think the "Error Console" is not that thing. Wether that could be changed (making it an error log) is another question, but if, then I'd prefer a way to log warnings (or debugging messages) using the PDB, so I do not have to hardwire my own solution in perl anymore. > As it is, some PNG errors are reported to stderr, which is probably > not useful to anyone The problem is that developers probably won't notice, because they start gimp from an xterm often.
