Open your home directory and go to /home/<username>/.gimp-2.6 Hit enter and then go to ~plug-ins and ~scripts. You'll find python scripts in plug-ins and scm scripts in scripts. Put the cursor on the script you want to delete and hit F8. It might be wise to create a temporary directory somewhere and backup everything first. Gerard. -- Gerard v. V.
