Greetings, all.

A tarball of version 0.9.6 of Tiny-Fu is now available at: http://www.interlog.com/~kcozens/software/gimp/tiny-fu.html

The biggest change affected all script files which now use a separate tiny-fu-menu-register call to place an entry in the menu hierarchy. This means scripts can now register themselves the same way as is done in plug-ins. In addition to this and other changes in the script files, there were some changes to the Tiny-Fu plug-in to fix a few bugs, and to track some changes made to the Script-Fu plug-in.

Changes since the 0.9.5 release:

- Added support for (tiny-fu-menu-register) to allow scripts to register their menu paths in the same undeprecated way as plug-ins. Fixes bug #158117.

- Don't silently return when there is already a script running but show a message instead. Fixes bug #123882.

- Re-added the deprecated constants for backwards compatability with Script-Fu and the 2.0 version of GIMP.

- Other minor code changes, cleanups, and bug fixes.

- Updates and fixes to various scripts

* Updated all scripts to use script-fu-menu-register and pass just the menu label in script-fu-register.

* Changed some gimp-selection-clear calls to gimp-selection-none. See bug #156765.

* Fixed incorrect comparison in an if statement in the copy-visible.sct script. Partial(?) fix for bug #138662.

* Fixed erase-rows.sct so it will work on layers that have their top-left corner at a position other than the top-left corner of the image. Fixes bug #158863.

* Fixed spyrogimp.scm by forcing number of teeth to integer values. Changed default value for Outer teeth. Fixes bug #158448.

* Changed some scripts which called gimp-edit-* functions on drawables which were not yet added to an image because this will be forbidden soon.

* Updated some scripts to use the new transform API.

Greetings, all.

After almost a year and a half of development, Tiny-Fu has reached a major milestone with the release of the 1.0.0 version. Although it is now at version 1.0, there are a few minor issues remaining. Mainly, the translation files are not all up-to-date yet and there is one (or possibly two) script files which are not working properly.

I felt the remaining issues were minor enough that it wasn't worth holding off on the release of a 1.0 version. I also needed to release a 1.0 version so the code could be branched allowing work to begin on the changes needed so Tiny-Fu can be used with the current CVS version of GIMP.

With the release of the 1.0.0 version, the code has been branched. The 1.0 branch of code is the stable release of Tiny-Fu for the 2.2 version of GIMP. The HEAD version of Tiny-Fu in CVS is the 1.1 version for use with the current CVS version of GIMP.

There are quite a few changes that need to be applied to the 1.1 branch of the Tiny-Fu code in order to catch up to the current state of GIMP development. I will be applying the changes as quickly as I can but I am also involved in another important project for a client (ie. paid work) that may limit the time I have available to work on Tiny-Fu.

Keep an eye on the Tiny-Fu ChangeLog file if you wish to follow the status of the development for the 1.1 version of Tiny-Fu.

Changes since the 1.0.0rc1 release:

- Updates to various string translation files

- Updates and fixes to various scripts

* scripts/text-circle.sct: Letters are now placed properly for both positive and negative fill angles. Last(?) fix for bug #144588.

* scripts/font-map.sct: Updated to fix problems related to change in handling of string arrays (see bug #168290). Fixes bug #308681.

* scripts/coffee.sct: Fixed "alot" in a string to read "a lot".

Greetings, all.

Five days ago version 1.1.0 of Tiny-Fu was released for use with the 2.3/CVS versions of GIMP. Work on the 1.1 version of Tiny-Fu began just over a year ago. Tiny-Fu 1.1 has been stable enough in use with the 2.3/CVS version of GIMP for a few months but other projects (Google SoC and the major update to my web site) delayed the creation of the release and its announcement.

With the release of version 1.1.0, there are two main versions of Tiny-Fu. The 1.0 versions are for use with the 2.2 versions of GIMP. The 1.1 versions are for use with the 2.2 (and current CVS) versions of GIMP.

Although Tiny-Fu 1.0 versions may work with the 2.3/CVS GIMP when linked with a 2.3/CVS version of libgimp I have not tested this combination of Tiny-Fu and GIMP and do not plan to support it. If you want to use Tiny-Fu with 2.3/CVS versions of GIMP I suggest you stick to using 1.1 versions. You will get the additional benefit of some new features and bug fixes compared to the 1.0 versions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: All versions of Tiny-Fu up to and including 1.1.0 have been able to co-exist with Script-Fu. This has facilitated testing and debugging of Tiny-Fu until now. Current plans for the next release will mean that Tiny-Fu and Script-Fu can no longer be installed and available at the same time. This change is being made in the interest of simplifying the transition to Tiny-Fu from Script-Fu.

Highlights of the changes since the 1.0.x release:

- Updated to use version 1.37 of the TinyScheme interpreter.

- Changes to the build requirements.

* Build requires GIMP version 2.3.10 or higher. * Updated autogen.sh to require newer versions of build tools.

- Some minor enhancements.

* CSS color keywords can be used in place of the '(r g b) color notation. * Added support for SF-ENUM type * Added MIN-IMAGE-SIZE, MAX-IMAGE-SIZE, MIN-RESOLUTION, and MAX-RESOLUTION constants for use in Tiny-Fu

- Numerous changes and bug fixes.

* Re-enabled "Browse" button now that the procedure browser is a widget called GimpProcBrowserDialog. Fixes bug #165009.

- Changes to script files.

* scripts/gradient-example.sct: Draw gradient with the users colors. * scripts/reverse-layers.sct: New script * scripts/image-structure.sct: Removed script (see bug #307016). * Other minor changes and/or fixes to script files.

- Updates to many of the string translation files.
