Gluas is a Gimp plugin that allows for image processing algorithm prototyping using Lua. It enables faster testing and development of image manipulation techniques.
The in-image preview has been implemented remarkably. It is clean, efficient, and might even be useful for other plug-ins. Still, it is susceptible to crashes, so please make an effort to help debug these possible crashes.
Installing Gluas on Unix is relatively straightforward. Once unpackaged, run "./configure; make; su; make install", and that should be enough. You can opt to install it only for a single user by manually copying the binary to "~/gimp-2.2/plug-ins/".
When you want to use the Gluas plug-in, go to "/Filters/Generic/gluas." There, you will be greeted with a straightforward text editor, which will allow you to load, save and apply Lua scripts for image processing. If you need more information on how to program with GIMP Lua, the Lua website provides some excellent resources to help you along.
Finally, it is worth noting that Gluas has some specific functions that you may find useful. These functions include, but are not limited to: [insert functions list here]. All in all, Gluas is an indispensable plug-in for any image manipulation needs.
