Re: [Gimp-user] Plugin for copying mouse coordinates to clipboard

[Kevin Payne <paynekj hotmail com>]

As GIMP's built-in mechanism for picking points (Sample points) is completely unscriptable (WHY ????), I'd 
imagine creating a new, small layer consisting of some crosshairs, then having the user move that layer to 
the desired location and using a script to get that location.

A completely different way of doing it, but possibly just as efficient:
use the path editor, making an anchor on each point for which you want
to export the coordinates, then use my path-csv script to export the
path (ie, all the points in one go) to a CSV file:
