The command displays a
dialog window which shows all of the extensions (plug-ins) which are
currently loaded in GIMP, both as a list and
as a hierarchical tree structure. Since many of the filters are actually
plug-ins, you will certainly see many familiar names here. Please note
that you do not run the extensions from this dialog window. Use the
appropriate menu entry to do that instead. For example, you can run
filter plug-ins by using the command
on the image menubar.
