[Gimp-developer] thumbnail generation for nautilus via gimp

[Eckhard M. Jäger]

Hello Sven,

thanks for the link and the help.

there is a thing that i don't understand, my script is opening the file
and so the thumbnail 
is generated by Gimp automaticly when closing gimp.

I thought using gimp-file-save-thumbnail would be faster and uses less
memory then opening 
the files like i did. But now i read the documentation and see to use
gimp-file-save-thumbnail
i have to open the file first to get the image ID. 

So my question is: Is there an advantage using gimp-file-save-thumbnail?
