  • summary changed from Python scripting support to Add scripting support.
  • milestone set to Goanna release 0.5.

Not sure if we want to use Python or Guile for this. Guile would have some various advantages, especially making it reasonable to do some graphics profile things with the scripting engine.

OTOH, Guile is Scheme... that could be a little strange for some people.

Either way, this is probably doable for 0.5.

#503 was created about this also.

The current idea is to provide a mechanism for adding scripts to run to the context menu. I've got some notes on how to do this on some paper somewhere.
