I am running gimp-2.6.11 under Fedora 13 and Fedora 14.

Both show under Filter>Combine the scripts filmstrip and depth merge.

I haven't added either to my personal files. I tried looking for the relevant .scm files in /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts by using grep on various strings, and I have been unable to find either script.

They both show up under Filter>Combine and the Help>Plug-in Browser shows both of them as Filters.

Where are they?

How does gimp decide which heading under Filter to use to place something?

These are global filters installed with gimp, rather than personal that you may have chosen to install.

Added to that they are compiled plugins and are in

/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/

global scripts are in

/usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts/

For scripts 'something.scr' and python plugins 'something.py' open in a text editor and have a look at the last few lines of the script, this determines whereabouts in the menu they reside.

Here is an excerpt from a typical .scm file:

(script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-split3" "/Filters/RSS")

The second line is where it tells GIMP where to put the menu item
