GIMP and Specifying Raw Importers

Software GIMP
1

For all of you projects that are working as raw processors ahead of GIMP, mitch has a means for changing the image importer used.

From mitch over on #gimp:

GIMP now allows to configure the RAW digital cameras image importer used. In order to be listed in the new “Preferences → File Import/Export → Raw Image Importer” section, RAW import plug-ins must register their load procedures as handling RAW images. In the plug-in’s query(), simply call gimp_register_file_handler_raw() on the load procedures’ names.

See gimp/plug-ins/file-darktable/file-darktable.c as reference.

This may be of interest/importance for some projects, right @houz, @Carmelo_DrRaw, @Morgan_Hardwood, @CarVac, @ggbutcher and anyone else writing raw processors that want to be called from GIMP to handle raw files? :smiley:

Thanks for the heads up, Pat.
