Hello!

Gimp version 2.0pre4 (debian/sid gimp1.3 1.3.27+2.0pre4)

I am trying to extend one of my scripts from an old version but cannot get gimp-file-load to work:

Here the script: (define (script-fu-fileload filein)
(gimp-message-set-handler 1)
; Create an img and a layer
(gimp-message "1")
(gimp-message filein)
(set! my-image (gimp-file-load 1 filein filein)) (gimp-message "2"))

(script-fu-register "script-fu-fileload" "/Script-Fu/Norb/fileload"
"Testscript"
"Norbert Preining "
"Norbert Preining"
"2004.03.17"
""
SF-FILENAME "filein" "./dummy.tiff")

But I cannot get it to run without error: $ gimp --no-data -i --verbose -b '(script-fu-fileload "\"test.tif\"") This is a development version of The GIMP. Debug messages may appear here.

INIT: gimp_load_config Parsing '/etc/gimp/1.3/gimprc'

INIT: gimp_real_initialize
INIT: gimp_restore
INIT: gimp_real_restore
Starting extension: 'extension_script_fu' script-fu: 1

script-fu: "test2.jpg"

batch command: experienced an execution error.

Also, when I give the full pathname to test.tif (which exits) it doesn't work.

No idea why, but maybe someone can help me!

Best wishes and thanks for all your help

Norbert

You need to pass all parameters to your script. You can use the PDB Browser to check how the script is actually registered. GIMP added a run-mode parameter for you. So please try this command-line instead:

gimp --no-data -i --verbose -b '(script-fu-fileload 0 "\"test.tif\"")

Same same unfortunately:
$ gimp --no-data -i --verbose -b '(script-fu-fileload 0 "\"test.tif\"")' This is a development version of The GIMP. Debug messages may appear here.

I tried with calling the plugin from within gimp UI, and it works without any problem. So I don't see why it doesn't work here. Any more suggestions what I can do? Is there the possibility to make gimp output more debug stuff?

Best wishes
