[Gimp-user] python plug-ins not getting loaded

[Steven Howe]

Hello,
I'm trying to use a python plugin I downloaded from the plugin site.
I copied it to $HOME/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins; restarted gimp. NO JOY

The plug-in browser does not show the script available. Looked over the 
pluginrc.
Register entry not there either.

Nor can I find the plug-in in the procedure browser.

Then perhaps just a clarification question. What's the difference between
a procedure and a plug-in?

I've noted that some (if not all) python scripts, in the 
/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins
can be found under procedure browser not the plug-in browser.
