... and Gimp is backpedalling furiously from that decision;
they now allow plugins in C, Perl, and Python as well as
the original Scheme. Looking at the
registry of available plugins at http://registry.gimp.org,
it seems clear that a lot of plugins are being written in
Perl and C.
I wrote a little plugin once for Gimp in Scheme. It was a major pain in
the ass, and I'm a fairly good programmer. The documentation sucked,
and Scheme was a bit of a nightmare to learn on the fly. I'm
sure if I had already known Scheme, it would have been a lot
easier. But next time I do it, I sure as heck won't use the Scheme
interface.
