(and as it happens, in 1.1 the Gimp library directory is /usr/local/lib/gimp/1.1, and so forth. Not very friendly to a version-agnostic plugin.) What do you need exactly? We could extend gimptool to provide values for the whole gamut of autoconf installation path variables... The print plugin will at some point have auxiliary files. I'm thinking of moving the printer descriptions out of the plugin (where they're compiled into presently) and into some kind of text file describing their capabilities, and I want somewhere to put those files. -- Robert Krawitz <rlk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.tiac.net/users/rlk/ Tall Clubs International -- http://www.tall.org/ or 1-888-IM-TALL-2 Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- mail lpf@xxxxxxxxxxxx Project lead for The Gimp Print -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton
