create a custom tool or run script at cursor?

Is there a way to have a custom tool that executes commands where I point?

I'd like to have a tool that where I click takes the foreground color via pipette and in the same spot immediately applies "fill" with the settings the fill tool is set at.

Script pseudo code would be:

get cursor position use pipette at cursor pos to FG color apply "fill" at cursor position

Can that be scripted?

I don't know any way to get at the pointer coordinates when the script is called. There are ways to give it coordinates (using a vector), but this is not as dynamic.

How do you mean by using a vector, and what by "not as dynamic"?

See http://gimp.open-source-solution.org/manual/gimp-tool-path.html

It's not as dynamic because you have to set the path, then switch to the script, providing the path. It's not like a tool that uses the mouse clicks directly.

That would actually work almost quite as well if one can get the script only to do things at the nodes. Possible?

Sure - here is a script that labels each point of a node:

http://ffaat.poweredbyclear.com/incoming/scripts/RMA_label_points.scm

The key chunk you are interested in is here:

; get all the points in the path as a ((x1 x1) (x2 y2) ...) list (while (< counter numstrokes) ; for each stroke in the path (set! points (caddr (gimp-vectors-stroke-get-points inPath (vector-ref strokelist counter))))

(set! numpoints (/ (cadr (gimp-vectors-stroke-get-points inPath (vector-ref strokelist counter))) 6))

(let ((pcount 0))
(while (< pcount numpoints)
(set! pointlist (append pointlist (list (list (vector-ref points (+ (* pcount 6) 2)) (vector-ref points (+ (* pcount 6) 3))))))

(set! pcount (+ pcount 1)) )
)
(set! counter (+ counter 1)) )

Of course, it needs a few defines up front....
