Re: [Gimp-user] Script-Fu deprecation warnings - how to handle these?

[Richard <strata_ranger hotmail com>]

None that I'm aware of -- docs.gimp.org lists a "Script-Fu Migration Guide" but that is relative to GIMP 2.4 
(when GIMP switched script-fu engines) and not up to date with current versions.

In the case of gimp-selection-load specifically, the one parameter is a channel handle and I assume it 
operates on the 'current' image (which is probably the reason for its deprecation).  The three parameters to 
gimp-image-select-item are:

1 - target image handle
2 - Type of operation to perform on the target image (add/subtract/etc.)
3 - Source item to operate from (layer, channel, etc.)

All these parameters make sense.  Your image handle is provided automatically when executing your script, 
CHANNEL_OP_REPLACE or CHANNEL_OP_ADD is probably what you want to fill in for parameter 2, and parameter 3 
can take the channel handle just like the older function.
