  65.     The <span class="guimenuitem">Plug-In Browser</span> command displays a
  66.     dialog window which shows all of the extensions (plug-ins) which are
  67.     currently loaded in <acronym class="acronym">GIMP</acronym>, both as a list and
  68.     as a hierarchical tree structure. Since many of the filters are actually
  69.     plug-ins, you will certainly see many familiar names here. Please note
  70.     that you do not run the extensions from this dialog window. Use the
  71.     appropriate menu entry to do that instead. For example, you can run
  72.     filter plug-ins by using the <span class="guimenuitem">Filter</span> command
  73.     on the image menubar.
