Use g_message (), which is a standard glib logging mechanism that is configured to do the right thing from gimp plug-ins. The right thing is to use the console if the user specified the --console-messages option or if gimp is running in batch mode. If running interactively it will display a dialog window or use the error console. Salut, Sven
