Hi all.
I have written a small Gimp Shell to explore Gimp Python (I currently
use the debian-testing packages for this).
Simply drop it in ~/.gimp-1.2/plug-ins .
To be able to use it (<Toolbox>/Xtns/Python-Fu/Gimp-Shell)
you have to start the Gimp from an Terminal.
The thing has completion and history. You can start exploring
Gimp-Python by entering "gimp.<TAB><TAB>" .
Have fun!
Simon
