no you wouldn't.

Forgot all about this one.

I can't really be tremendously specific about locations as Gimpchat keep sending me this... "Your post looks too spamy for a new user, please remove off-site URLs."

I have Gimp 2.8.1, the bundled app. Between IFS on the "gimp registry"
and IFS on "gimper"

Gimper suggests that IFS is a Script-fu script. I tired moving combinations of unix executables from both packages to the correct locations (in 2.8-plugins and also in the app internal)

There are no instructions whatsoever packaged with the IFS script for building with OSX at either site.

The location you directed me to did not include any directions for building IFS in OSX from IFS.c as far as I saw and the GIMP package didn't contain a precompiled IFS plugin.

When correctly placed, the packaged unix executable does not show up in the Plug-in browser.
As it states explicitly that the .tgz was compiled under Uuntu it makes sense that the linked plugin wouldnt run under OSX.


By help area I meant the plug-in browser under "help."

Every place I've looked provides some different flavour of how to install gimp from binaries. Macports, Fink, or whatever other variety they are suggesting. Many of them suggest "gimptool." but there isn't the remotest bit of standardisation in the instructions.

Do I need to compile gimp from scratch to get gimptool or is that just the same as GTK+2, GTK+2-dev, and GTK+2shlibs?

How do I compile the plugin under osx? (is this specific enough ? )

Thanks

After you make one more post you will be able to post your screen shot or images. You have to have 5 posts.

Ok Molly thanks, but the problem here isn't where I moved the plugin to... I'm certain I got that part right.

Graechan directed me to an update of GIMP for OSX to 2.8.14 to be precise, but the installer does not provide any further instructions as to how to build the plugin.

Is there a makefile available for this plugin for OSX?

Does anyone know what IFS stands for?

IFS Fractal
“IFS” stands for “Iterated Function System”

As far as compiling the src for OSX - YES you would need to compile GIMP src first THEN you would use gimptool-2.0 to compile the plugin IFS. You need to compile GIMP to get gimptool.

OR you can ask Partha to compile it for you. He might do this for you.As he already has the compile environment setup for OSX

Partha is brilliant. All sorted for the newest release of McGimp . Nice plugin. Im looking forward to getting some time in playing with it more than just doing a test!

Does this plugin work for gimp 2.10.10?

Works perfectly.
Most of my .exe plug-ins are from the samj compilation packs.

A Linux version for anyone interested.

Definitely interested, thank you rich

Is there a Windows 64 bit version? I remember using this pluigin in windows 7.

Thank you, RMDesigns.
