Thanks so much for all of the specifics!
I do really look forward to writing the code to move the pointer around. I am still messing around to get the function calls right in the console, haven't had a lot of time for this hobby project just lately. I don't plan to try using a loop in the console, just using it for practice on the read file-copy rectangle-paste rectangle in new file-write new file-move pointer syntax.
I am using GIMP in Mac OS, so lots of things (like file path objects) should map closely considering the UNIX base underlying everything.
I reached the same conclusion that Python would be a wiser investment of my time learning new things, in terms of possibly being useful again some day. But I was kind of enjoying the quirks of Scheme that I was reading and wasn't worried about it's unique-ness for such a simple coordinate moving exercise.
