Since I use the Python console a lot myself to test GIMP API, the
ability to recall previously ran commands is extremely useful. Let's
just add support for this as an AUX argument. This was already done in
the Script-fu console, now in the Python console too!
These were created because of some limitation/bug in pygobject, which is
now much better worked around by having specific functions for every
argument type supported by the PDB.
Clicking on the Save button threw an exception as the wrong class was
used to invoke the `set_alternative_button_order_from_array()` method.
Since `Gtk.Dialog.set_alternative_button_order_from_array()` is
deprecated and the GIMP functions with the same name suppress
deprecation warnings in the C code, we suppress the warning here as
well. The `warnings.catch_warnings()` function is not thread-safe
according to the Python documentation, which should not pose a problem
here.
Also, the file chooser dialog now allows specifying a new file instead
of overwriting an existing file.
Hence avoiding the stderr messages. These are going to be localized with
centrally installed catalogs "gimp*-std-plugins", "gimp*-script-fu" and
"gimp*-python".
We now handle core plug-in localizations differently and in particular,
with kind of a reverse logic:
- We don't consider "gimp*-std-plugins" to be the default catalog
anymore. It made sense in the old world where we would consider the
core plug-ins to be the most important and numerous ones. But we want
to push a world where people are even more encouraged to develop their
own plug-ins. These won't use the standard catalog anymore (because
there are nearly no reasons that the strings are the same, it's only a
confusing logic). So let's explicitly set the standard catalogs with
DEFINE_STD_SET_I18N macro (which maps to a different catalog for
script-fu plug-ins).
- Doing something similar for Python plug-ins which have again their own
catalog.
- Getting rid of the INIT_I18N macro since now all the locale domain
binding is done automatically by libgimp when using the set_i18n()
method infrastructure.
- Set the "gimp30-python" Gettext domain and bind it to the proper
locale directory as installed by GIMP.
- Localize various strings with gettext.
- Remove calls to self.set_translation_domain() in
do_query_procedures(). This is technically wrong right now but I am
going to get rid of the menu item localization for plug-ins done by
the core.
Since meson 0.43.0 (below our current requirement), 'symbol_prefix'
argument of gnome.generate_gir() allows an ordered list. If I prepend
'gimp_ui', it makes any gimp_ui_*() function to not start with 'ui_'.
In particular, GimpUi.ui_init() becomes GimpUi.init() which is much less
redundant.
Just "Console" is enough in the context of menus with submenu hierarchy,
but when accessing directly the feature (with Action Search for
instance), a more accurate name is nicer. It avoids to have to check
what is what in the tooltip text.
We have code for this in gimp_proc_browser_dialog_new(), but it cannot
be moved in the object init() because this is a construction-time only
property. So this needs to be passed from the python call too.
I may have missed things. That is the problem of non-compiled script
languages. There is also a known warning:
> DeprecationWarning: Gtk.Dialog.set_alternative_button_order_from_array is deprecated
I'll see later about this one.
Push-time note: calling various functions is actually broken right now
in the console since the late API changes (it was working fine yesterday
evening when I tested the same python-console code). Pushing anyway for
now.
