Description

Details

gimp_gimprc_query ()

gchar*      gimp_gimprc_query               (gchar *token);

Queries the gimprc file parser for information on a specified token.

This procedure is used to locate additional information contained in the gimprc file considered extraneous to the operation of the GIMP. Plug-ins that need configuration information can expect it will be stored in the user gimprc file and can use this procedure to retrieve it. This query procedure will return the value associated with the specified token. This corresponds _only_ to entries with the format: (<token> <value>). The value must be a string. Entries not corresponding to this format will cause warnings to be issued on gimprc parsing a nd will not be queryable.

token : The token to query for.
Returns : The value associated with the queried token.

gimp_gimprc_set ()

gboolean    gimp_gimprc_set                 (gchar *token,
                                             gchar *value);

Sets a gimprc token to a value and saves it in the gimprc.

This procedure is used to add or change additional information in the gimprc file that is considered extraneous to the operation of the GIMP. Plug-ins that need configuration information can use this function to store it, and gimp_gimprc_query to retrieve it. This will accept _only_ parameters in the format of (<token> <value>), where <token> and <value> must be strings. Entries not corresponding to this format will be eaten and no action will be performed. If the gimprc can not be written for whatever reason, gimp will complain loudly and the old gimprc will be saved in gimprc.old.

token : The token to modify.
value : The value to set the token to.
Returns : TRUE on success.

gimp_get_monitor_resolution ()

gboolean    gimp_get_monitor_resolution     (gdouble *xres,
                                             gdouble *yres);

Get the monitor resolution as specified in the Preferences.

Returns the resolution of the monitor in pixels/inch. This value is taken from the Preferences (or the X-Server if this is set in the Preferences) and there's no guarantee for the value to be reasonable.

xres : X resolution.
yres : Y resolution.
Returns : TRUE on success.
