Re: [Gimp-user] Question about golden-spiral-0.0.py script



OK, it works now. It was a combination of both not being executable AND
having it in the scripts folder instead of the plug-ins folder.  I had
tried both folders but before it was suggested to make them executable.

Thanks, all!

Owen,

Thanks for the response.  I have python installed:

Python 2.7.5 (default, Mar  9 2014, 22:15:05)

[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.0 (clang-500.0.68)] on darwin

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

and I have the script executable:

-rwxr-x--x@  1 username  staff  7980 Nov 14 22:41 golden-spiral-0.0.py

I could just be looking for it in the wrong place.  The documentation
states that it shows up under "<Image>/Select".  However, I can't find it
under the Image menu or the select menu.  Please advise.


The plugin should be made executable, in one of the plugins directories
(check Edit>Preferences>Folders>Plugins to see where they are).

It should be at the bottom of the Select menu of any image window, and
appear in the plugin and procedure browsers (but you have already checked
this). You can try to start Gimp from a terminal (if this can be done on
OSX). If the plugin doesn't register you will likely see an error message
in the terminal window. A frequent cause of problem is editing the plugin,
and unknowingly altering the indentation. This causes Python syntax errors
that make the registration fail (in case of doubt, download a fresh
version).
