no doubt someone with more gimp experience tha I will correct me if I'm 
wrong

a path in gimp is a bezier spline and can be exported, in version 2 its 
exported in svg format, which i believe is xml based
in version 1.2.x gimp, it was a different format and there exists 
gimppath2pov.py python script to convert it to *a pov inc file

  cat is nuzzling the keyboard+

-*numpad+
