I would like to suggest: - use spaces, not tabs. - for comments use ";;;;" (left, heading, optional), ";;;" (left), ";;" (code level) and ";" (right). - use headers in comments, so you give some info, not just the code. - files start with ";;; filename.scm --- description". - files end with ";;; filename.scm ends here". - put ) at the end of something, not in a new line. - and ( just before the text, not in the line above. - if the script launchs a dialog, write "..." in the path. Mainly, Emacs Lisp rules. We can read them fully and use what we think that applies, writing a new doc for Gimp site (and start patching as time allows).
