| Gimp 3.0.4 python batch interpreter oddities |

Hi,
I use the python-fu-eval batch interpreter on GIMP 3.0.4 AppImage and have noticed some unexpected behaviour. As a trivial example,
User:~$ ~/AppImages/gimp/GIMP-3.0.4-x86_64.AppImage -i --quit --batch-interpreter=python-fu-eval -b 'if True: a="something"; print(a);'
something
batch command executed successfully
But if the "if" statement comes after the declaration of variable "a"
User:~$ ~/AppImages/gimp/GIMP-3.0.4-x86_64.AppImage -i --quit --batch-interpreter=python-fu-eval -b 'a="something";if True: print(a);'
batch command experienced a calling error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/.mount_GIMP-3bPBAmP/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/python-eval/python-eval.py", line 42, in code_eval
exec(code, globals())
File "<string>", line 1
a="something";if True: print(a);
^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Similar problems arise with a "with" statement.
I don't understand this. Has anyone else noticed this sort of behaviour?
My OS is linux 6.1.0-37-amd64
Thanks.

The British Post Office is releasing a special series of 10 stamps honoring the British comedy collective Monty Python. Nice! Four of the stamps depict scenes from the film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," which was released exactly 50 years ago this year. The remaining six stamps feature the members of Monty Python: Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin.
When I'm walking through Bruges, Belgium, and hear a horse-drawn carriage approaching, I always think of the scene with the coconut. I'll say to my wife, coconut sound, John Cleese's coming. I've never heard a reaction from the tourists around me... Monty Python humor, a little different ?

| Creating a Flyer in GIMP with a Multi URL QR Code |

I wanted to design a flyer in GIMP that includes a multi URL QR code, wich is basically one code that sends people to a page with multiple links (my website, social media and a contact form). I didn’t feel like installing any Python plugins or messing with the GIMP plug-in folder, so I kept it simple and did everything outside GIMP, then imported the result.
What I did:
- I used a QR generator that supports multiple links. Most modern services allow you to create a multi URL QR code using a dynamic landing page inside their service. I added all my links and customized the page with my logo and colors.
- I exported the QR code as a PNG. The site lets you download in high resolution, and even vector formats if needed. PNG worked fine for my case.
- I opened my flyer project in GIMP and imported the QR code.
I used File > Open as Layers to bring in the QR PNG, then scaled it down while keeping interpolation set to None to preserve sharp edges (blurry codes leads to huge scan fails).
- I added a small label below it “Scan for links” to make it obvious.
- Tested the scan at actual print size using my phone camera. Worked right away.
