BTW, Olof, Daniel, whoever-thinks-about-plug-in-management: The plug-ins module on sourceforge is the ideal playground for some more intelligent plug-in management (for gimp-1.3 and beyond). IMHO every new plug-in should get a subdirectory there, and then we can craft some guidelines. For one thing, a mini-plug-in with a single .c file should be possible. This would also be a chance to somehow decentralize the i18n tables somehow. For example one could give each plug-in it's own message catalog and translation files which could be merged into one large one. -- -----==- | ----==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / pcg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx |e| -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |
