Late binding / COM for opening an image into GIMP?

[i73]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a way to use .net to open up a application in Gimp,

Something like:

Code:

dynamic app= Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Gimp.Application", true));
app.Load("D:\a.png");

AFAIK nothing Windows specific to start Gimp. If you want to use Gimp from some other application, start it like an external application.

Do you know if it has a CLI argument to pass it and load an image once I've opened it? Thanks!
