Pango Markup (Gimp plugin) that allows GEGL to do rich text.

Fri Oct 28, 2022 10:47 pm

THIS IS TECHNICALLY STILL IN EARLY DEVELOPMENT made by an actual Gimp dev I am friends with. This is the first filter I did not make.

This is a technical plugin that is meant to be ran inside GEGL Graph. It is a fork of gegl:text but it allows text spacing and other advance mark up features that the pango library has. Which means in theory it can work like a rich text editor that has bold, italics, different colors and fonts. I just haven't got that far with it. I need to learn pango syntax and put that inside GEGL syntax.


TLDR, GEGL is rendering text entirely without gimp and it now has a GUIless rich text engine from a fork of gegl:text that a Gimp dev made.

We are truly in a new era of Gimp's history. The deep GEGL era.

If you want to use this you have to learn pango markup and optimally GEGL syntax too.

I am just at the beginning of learning pango to. In a few years I hope this will have a GUI like wordpad in Windows XP.

Excellent! I have written HTML and CSS style sheets before! This works great for me.
