Other plugins that save things go to the user profile directory root (.gimp-2.6). For example, I have: focusblurrc pspirc Check the source of any of these for examples. Alternately, if there is not much data, you could use parasites. some plugins also create/require a subdirectory under the plugin installed directory where things like presets are saved. An exmpl of this is mathmap or felimage. -Rob A> On Tue, Mar 2, 2010 at 11:16 AM, François Gingras <francois.gingras.1@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Greetings, > > A plug-in I'm currently developing may require writing a small file somewhere to save its 'last-used' and 'default' settings: those settings can theoritically use lots of memory (typically just a few bytes though), so I need to allocate the appropriate amount of memory everytime the plug-in is run. I was wondering if it is "ethically correct" for a plug-in to save such a file, and if so, what would be the best directory to save said file to. > > Thank you! > > François Gingras > _______________________________________________ > Gimp-developer mailing list > Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer > _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
