Quote:.. But apparently others in the plugins folder and in the python folder do not seem to...unless they are listed under a different name in the GIMP filter menu. Some examples would be Colorify, Guillotine and numerous others. ..
The python menu entry brings up a python console, used for manually entering commands (for testing / debugging) and a procedure browser to find those commands.
Stick with the regular menus until familiar with how Gimp works.
One of those you mentioned 'Guillotine' How do you find it ? It is tucked away in the Image -> Transform menu. (Edit: Oops; used to be there, the one shown in the screenshot is a plugin I added, guillotine has moved to Image -> Slice using Guides. as this https://i.imgur.com/c5Rr9B4.jpg ) There is a plugin browser Help -> Plug-in Browser Type in a (partial) search term and it shows the location in the menu structure: screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/8BZuHxi.jpg
That also applies to plugins you have installed. As an example a python plugin, one way is examine the script, it defines where the menu entry is placed or again use the plugin browser. Not all menu entries are plugins. Types can be identified in the menu structure by their icons (or lack of icon) At present there are the individual compiled or python plugin and then GEGL filters built into the Gimp system. screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/SQRgxBG.jpg
If stuck, Gimp 2.10 has a search facility, press the (forward slash) / key enter a search term, click on an item to launch it. screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/omjZqzi.jpg
