How generate scriptfu scheme code in GIMP?

Question

Gimp has script-fu for scripting code in Scheme. But i don't know does ít has the reverse function? It mean, when i draw or do something, can it generate scheme code or any language parallel with that action? I think that will be the best way to learn coding in GIMP. Thanks

i have search at lease 10 google pages and download 1 pdf, but it doesn't help

What you are looking for doesn't exist.

• Scripts are in general not able to change things in the UI (like the zoom factor) nor to interact directly with the UI (like obtain where the user clicked).
• Many single UI actions correspond to a sequence of API calls
• Many API calls do the same as a sequence of mouse clicks
• Sometimes the most efficient way to do something in a script is very different from the "manual" way.

Over the years I have seen several attempts at a "Gimp recorder" but they all fell short.

The best way to learn to code in Gimp is to see examples. All Gimp scripts are open-source by design, and there are thousands of scripts around, either in Scheme or Python.
