Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: wrong number of parameters
So, what am I doing wrong here? According to the method itself, it takes three rather-well documented arguments. I pass it the three things it wants, and I receive a TypeError. So:
- What am I doing wrong?
- Is there a reference manual for this?
In the tuples for the arguments, there's a 0, a 4, and a 4. What are these magic constants? According to the docs, these appear to be:
a parameter type (one of the PARAM_* constants)
But nowhere in those docs do I find
PARAM_constants, and I've not found them introspecting any of pdb, gimp or gimpfu.
Just to be complete: the obvious, help(pdb.gimp_file_load), isn't really that helpful:
>>> help(pdb.gimp_file_load)
