plugin help: not appearing in gimp

[Ofnuts]

Which is why the first thing to do is to run the script in  command prompt outside of Gimp (yes, it' easier to do on Linux/OSX, but it can also be done in Windows):

Bad code, will definitely not run when Gimp tries to make it register:

Code:

$python ggtest.py
 File "ggtest.py", line 40
   gimp.message(e.args[0])
   ^
IndentationError: unexpected indent

Worth trying (doesn't mean there are zero errors, but these will show when the script is used):

Code:

$python ggtest.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "ggtest.py", line 5, in <module>
   from gimpfu import *
ImportError: No module named gimpfu

This is also why it is important to use an adequate editor, that won't try to "help".
