Bryan Livingston of CoolText.com used to be the maintainer of this package, but i'm not sure if he still is. net-fu contains a bunch of modified script-fu scripts (interactive stuff removed, output saved to file), and a couple of CGI's. One CGI dynamically generates forms to get the script parameters (text, colors, font, fontsize, etc) and another submits "jobs" to the script-fu server plug-in running inside a GIMP that is started in batch mode. -Dave -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- www.flamingtext.com -- Real-time Graphics Generator -- It's fast + it's FREE! * Headings * Buttons * Arrows * Backgrounds * Animations * Bullets * Dividers * Wallpaper * Clipart * Mouseover Effects * E-Mail Signatures
