[Gimp-user] Converting Adobe *.ase swatch files from Kuler to Gimp *.gpl swatch files

[Bettina Karena Lechner]

Hi Chris,

thanks for your help.

Seems that the py isn't installed correctly cause I can't find it in the
plug-in browser. Usually I place plug-in files here:

/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins
(and they are working though)

anyone knows a better place under OS X for *.py files??
thank you in advance,
tina
