Thanks for the replies, while my main needs are simple, I would like to learn how to do more complex editing, so yes GIMP is overkill and complicated to use even for simple things (which I assume the devs have forgotten how to do), but I am happy if I can learn more as I go.
There is not enough help in the app to even get help working (at least the offline version) which is frustrating. I also can't believe that there is no plugin, brush or and other repository and in app management, sounds to me like the basics have been ignored in the app.
Anyway the script works and while more complicated than in other apps I can see that you can draw more complicated arrows which is great. I assume I can add a hotkey to it to speed things up, I will try later on.
The "repeat arrows" (under filter) tip is a great one, thanks.
I don't know why posts and the documentation is full of paths such as "C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\scripts" which need explanation (and in fact may be somewhere other than this default location) rather than just specifying "%appdata%\GIMP\3.0\scripts" which needs none...
