I was hoping to use script-fu to do some repetitive tasks, for example, create multiple random designs .. and read parameters from a file to do this. That seems to not work. Is the perl-fu interface any better (does it have file-io?) or is script-fu the best? (I like both languages!) Perl is great, but I'm an ex-Lisp hacker, so that's good, too. flea4it ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Most low income homes are not online.
