automated scribble-pad / remote-controlling the gimp?

hi,

I would like to know whether I can remote-control the gimp (via scheme, perl or python, maybe also C) such that it serves as an automated scribble-pad:
- gimp is started with an empty drawable - the user writes or draws stuff and clicks on "done" button - gimp saves the result in a folder with a unique id and opens another empty drawable for the next person

(ideally this should also work for text entered via keyboard, but that's another story...)
nnn
I have read this: http://www.gimp.org/docs/scheme_plugin/ Is there other documentation that would be helpful?

thanks,

David Hodson

I've written a file sequencer plugin (in C) that does something similar. If you are working with a numbered sequence of images, it saves your current image, and loads the next file in the sequence into the same display. It's here:
