How to solve downward compatibility 2.9 (or higher) to 2.8?
Reasons:
1. Name Changes example:
pdb.gimp_edit_fill(fill_layer,PATTERN_FILL) #GIMP 2.8
#pdb.gimp_edit_fill(fill_layer,FILL_PATTERN) #GIMP 2.9
Thanks to MQ.
If one (WE!) use this way of notifying needed changes, one could eventually give a notice of how to change a file to a version one needs.
From 2.8 to 2.9:
E.g. in Emacs: Search for #GIMP 2.8, go to beginning of line, insert a # (suitable place), goto start of next line, remove the next first #
Make it a macro and execute as often as needed.
This could naturally wrapped into a Python action file. Emacs commands 'translated' to Python commands.
2. New features in >2.8
Not solvable???
