Just a quick question. I did get this working, but I want to be certain of one issue. The PDB function is file-jpeg-load, but I have to spell it file_jpeg_load in my const char * which I pass to gimp_run_procedure. Is this the standard, are all functions o fthe form xxx-xxx-xxx really xxx_xxx_xxx, or are all hyphens really supposed to be underscores?
