[Gimp-developer] Using GIMP from my own program

[Pablo Yaggi]

Now I have my script running, It's a simple script that produces the
table-mirror effect apple does, but is it possible to check whether 
the interface is available or not, I mean if gimp is running with -i mode
(no interface).
Also, the script resizes the original image, is it possible to change the
actual zoom from inside the script? how ?
Bests,
Pablo
