Ubuntu install difficulty
Hey thanks for putting this plug-in together, I've been thinking about something like this for a while.
I'm having trouble though getting it to work. I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 64-bit. I installed the gimp_palette_generator_1_2.py to my ~/.gimp2.6/plug-ins/ directory. I have also installed the grapefruit library, though I wasn't sure if I needed to place the grapefruit.py file anywhere in particular. I tried putting it in my /usr/lib/python2.5/ directory but it still doesn't work - does it need to go somewhere specific?
When it is working how do you use the plug-in in GIMP? - where should the plug-in appear in the menus?
Thanks,
Matt
RE: Ubuntu install difficulty
GrapeFruit-0.1a3
Untar (or unzip) the source distribution, go into the new dir and run command line:
setup.py build
setup.py install
--------------------------------
Menu:
Gimp 2.6 Colors-->Palette Generator
Gimp 2.4 Xtns-->Palette Generator
Another Ubuntu install solution
1. According to instructions at http://code.google.com/p/grapefruit/ - as well as figuring out a couple things on my own - I installed Grapefruit this way (after cd-ing to folder):
$ python setup.py build
$ python sudo setup.py install
2. I also had to copy the palette generator plugin file to this directory: /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/
(not to the plugin directory in the user's home)
3. I also had to change the permissions on that file to execute:
$ cd /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/
$ sudo chmod +x gimp_palette_generator_1_3.py
Thanks for the plugin! :) I hope this might help someone else.

Thank you!
Thanks mate, got it working. I'm using Gimp 2.6 and I had to change the menu so it would appear in "/Xtns", as it wouldn't work if it was set to "/Colors".
Great plug-in! - just what I was looking for
How to install on Windows XP?
This does look like just what I need, but am clueless how to install it on Windows XP. Is it possible? Any help for a complete idiot, please?
RE: How to install on Windows XP?
Download and copy the script in:
"C:\Documents and Settings\name_ut\.gimp-2.6\plug-ins"
name_ut= your dir name
Have you install GrapeFruit-0.1a3?
Download it.
Untar (or unzip) the source distribution, go into the new dir and run command line:
setup.py build
setup.py install
Do you have gtk?
Download and install pycairo, pygobject e pygtk (python 2.5):
http://www.pygtk.org/downloads.html
Download and install GTK+ :
http://gtk-win.sourceforge.net/home/...p/en/Downloads
This Might Sound Corny, But...
I was able to compile the grapefruit.py file simply by double clicking setup.py - followed by double clicking grapefruit_test.py. Once the newly created grapefruit.py was created (it will show it's now a compiled file) I added the newly compiled grapefruit.py along with the gimp_palette_generator.py to my gimp users plugin folder and it worked. Great plugin, btw, thanks so much!
Using:
Vista Home Premium
GIMP 2.6.6.
Python 2.6
P.S. I had tried every mentioned command line entry given (build and install), and even read up on the Python website, regarding proper syntax for my version, and it still kept giving me invalid syntax errors no matter what I typed. Quite by accident, I discovered that double clicking the setup and test files actually executed the compilation, creating the new file. I had no idea it would do that. Does anyone have any idea what happened here? I'm curious.
It worked, but I had to
It worked, but I had to "

Thanks a lot, mate, I'll have a go at that at the weekend. Thanks for your help.
Many thanks! This is what I
Many thanks! This is what I was looking for. Bye bye Agave.
