Hi Liam,
Sorry, I thought my message was clear. “It” in the case of my message to which you’re responding is the pds plugin. Once the pds plugin was in the right place:
rickkline/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins
and I try to restart GIMP 2.10.8, the GIMP load stops when GIMP tries to load the pds plugin because "“pds” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified."
Options are “Move to Trash” or “Cancel” in the dialog box that pops up informing me that GIMP can’t open the pds plugin. I choose “Cancel” in the dialog box that pops up informing me that GIMP can’t open the pds plugin and GIMP finishies loading normally.
To me the pause in GIMP loading appears to be the fault of sensitivity to unknown file authors on the part of OS X.
So I doubt the plugin will work even if I change the name back to 1p157746813eff40b8p2363l3m1.img, .img being a NASA/Planetary Data System (PDS) uncompressed file format. Although I’m certainly willing to try opening the file as a .img file from within GIMP.
I was able to File/Open 1p157746813eff40b8p2363l3m1.img by changing the name to 1p157746813eff40b8p2363l3m1.data, then filling in the Height=1024, Width=1024, Image type=Gray unsigned 16 bit Little Endian.
What I’m ultimately hoping to accomplish is to install a GIMP plugin for PDS images so that I can open them without the necessity of changing the file type from .img to ,data (or anything else).
Hope that clears things up. Let me know if anything else is unclear.
Thanks.
Rick
