[Tuxpaint-devel] new args in _init()?

[foo-script <foo...@o2...>]

Could you add a pointer to canvas (or snapshot/last) surface to the tool_init() arguments list?
It would be very helpful.

That canvas doesn't really exist at that point.  Tux Paint is still
starting up (all the user sees is the splash screen).

You could do something like:

  * Set a global variable to 'false' at _init()
  * If it's false at _switchin(), set it to 'true', and do the stuff
    you need to do once and only once (but when a canvas is available)

Out of curiosity, why did you need this?

I just needed to alloc an array with it's size depending on canvas size.
You idea of solution seems to be good. I'll try.

Best,
Adam
