DESCRIPTION
gimptool-2.0 is a tool that can, among other things, build plug-ins or
scripts and install them if they are distributed in one source file.
gimptool-2.0 can also be used by programs that need to know what
libraries and include-paths GIMP was compiled with. gimptool-2.0 uses
pkg-config for this task. For use in Makefiles, it is recommended that
you use pkg-config directly instead of calling gimptool-2.0.
OPTIONS
gimptool-2.0 accepts the following options:
--version
Print the currently installed version of GIMP on the standard
output.
--help Print out the help blurb, showing commonly used commandline
options.
--quiet Run quietly without echoing any of the build commands.
--silent
Run silently without echoing any of the build commands. Same as
--quiet.
-n Test mode. Print the commands but don't actually execute them.
Useful for making dry runs for testing.
--just-print
Test mode. Print the commands but don't actually execute them.
Same as -n.
--dry-run
Test mode. Print the commands but don't actually execute them.
Same as -n.
--recon Test mode. Print the commands but don't actually execute them.
Same as -n.
--msvc-syntax
Useful on Windows. Outputs the compiler and linker flags in the
syntax used by Microsoft's toolchain. Passed to the pkg-config
command that does most of gimptool-2.0's work.
--bindir
Outputs the bindir used to install the GIMP.
--sbindir
Outputs the sbindir used to install the GIMP.
--libexecdir
Outputs the libexecdir used to install the GIMP.
--datadir
Outputs the datadir used to install the GIMP.
--sysconfdir
Outputs the sysconfdir used to install the GIMP.
--sharedstatedir
Outputs the sharedstatedir used to install the GIMP.
--localstatedir
Outputs the localstatedir used to install the GIMP.
--libdir
Outputs the libdir used to install the GIMP.
--infodir
Outputs the infodir used to install the GIMP.
--mandir
Outputs the mandir used to install the GIMP.
--includedir
Outputs the includedir used to install the GIMP.
--gimpdatadir
Outputs the actual directory where the GIMP data files were
installed.
--gimpplugindir
Outputs the actual directory where the GIMP plug-ins were
installed.

plug-in directory (${exec_prefix}/libexec/gimp/2.2/plug-ins)
--install-bin plug-in
Install plug-in into the user's personal GIMP plug-in directory
($HOME/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins)

directory ($HOME/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins)
--uninstall-admin-bin plug-in
Uninstall plug-in from the system-wide GIMP plug-in directory
(${exec_prefix}/libexec/gimp/2.2/plug-ins)
--uninstall-script script.scm
Uninstall script.scm from the user's personal GIMP script
directory ($HOME/.gimp-2.8/scripts)

--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a GIMP plug-
in.
--libs-noui
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a GIMP plug-
in, for plug-ins that do not require the GTK+ libraries.
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a GIMP
plug-in.
--clags-noui
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a GIMP
plug-in for plug-ins that do not require the GTK+ libraries.
--prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix
that GIMP was built with when computing the output for the
--cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for the
exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option
must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
--exec-prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec
prefix that GIMP was built with when computing the output for
the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified
before any --libs or --cflags options.
ENVIRONMENT
CC to get the name of the desired C compiler.
CFLAGS to get the preferred flags to pass to the C compiler for plug-
in building.
LDFLAGS to get the preferred flags for passing to the linker.
LIBS for passing extra libs that may be needed in the build process.
For example, LIBS=-lintl .
PKG_CONFIG
to get the location of the pkg-config program that is used to
determine details about your glib, pango, gtk+ and gimp
installation.
