I am doing the Script-Fu tutorials in Gimp version 2.4.5 on Windows XP.
I have invoked the Script-Fu console by going to Xtns > Script-Fu >
Script-Fu Console. I cannot type anything into this console. Anything I
type does not appear there. Am I supposed to be able to? If not how are
scripts supposed to be edited and debugged?

Should also mention I don't use Windows so it may be a Windows related
problem. Script-Fu works fine with defaults on Linux. If you're doing
everything right than I suspect it is an OS issue. Sorry I can't help with
that but someone else may be able to. If you feel you are doing things
correctly after reading the article I pointed to then re-ask your question.
Also, try launching Gimp from a....'command prompt' and see if you get any
errors...
