NAME

scm2perl - convert script-fu to perl

SYNOPSIS

 scm2perl filename.scm...

DESCRIPTION

This program tries to convert Script-Fu (Scheme) scripts written for The Gimp into a Perl script.

Don't expect too much from this version. To run it, you need the Parse::RecDescent module from CPAN.

CONVERSION TIPS

PDB functions returning arrays

Perl knows the length of arrays, Script-Fu doesn't. Functions returning single arrays return them as a normal perl array, Functions returning more then one array return it as an array-ref. Script-Fu (and the converted script) expect to get a length argument and then the arguments. Each occurrence (common ones are "gimp_list_images" or "gimp_image_get_layers") must be fixed by hand.
