The GimpPreview in the GIMP is used internally, and is not avalaible to plug-ins (I you are really as naive as you pretend, I should probably should have called the plug-ins "filters"). My preview is intended for plug-ins and contains severeal bells-and-whistles, that might be usefull for plug-ins. > As an aside: on your intropage, you end half of the sentences without > and the other half with full-stops. I hope you mean the initial table of contents (I already started looking at the "Introduction" page, but that one looked mostly OK). That is just intended as some help to future software archeologists so that they can determine in which order these pages were written :) But I will immediately admit that my punctiation is horrible. BTW, I have the feeling that most americans would not use the term "full-stop". So I suspect, that you originate from that part of the world that thinks that "Europe" and "the continent" as synonyms. greetings, Ernst
