There are many web sites on the Internet with information relating to the Script-Fu plug-in of GIMP. Some of those sites have information which is either out-of-date or which is misleading or inaccurate.

My primary area of interest regarding GIMP development for many years has been the Script-Fu plug-in of GIMP and the associated scripts. The scripts are written in a language called Scheme.

I am still determining what information should be included in these pages and how best to organize them. For now, you can see below a list of the topics I am planning to cover with the pages I will eventually be adding.
