NAME
extension_perl_server - Gimp-Perl scripts net server
SYNOPSIS
<Toolbox>/Filters/Languages/_Perl/_Server
DESCRIPTION
Allow scripting GIMP with Perl providing Gimp::Net server.
If activated by the user, allows Gimp-Perl scripts to connect to the running GIMP instance. Also provides a working example of a GIMP extension in Gimp-Perl.
If run_mode
is RUN_NONINTERACTIVE
, will run in "batch mode" and expect the filehandle
argument to be correct to communicate with the client. If RUN_INTERACTIVE
, expects to wait for connections.
There is a security advisory about GIMP scripting servers. This program will only allow TCP connections if a password is specified (the "auth" option), thereby eliminating any network-related security risk.
