Everyone says that ... my COMP-HIST automation [1] indicate
that this is about GIMP?
As Python (Gimp-Python) is now the main (only?) extension
language for GIMP - previously SIOD, TinyScheme, and
Script-Fu.

Tomás, you are almost always right. Why don't you write
a book/booklet on computer history? If you do, I can edit it
in very neat LaTeX with diagrams and lists and stuff.
Including the last list, what is it called, the index?
But without the pretentious introduction (yuk).
