Here are the Compose/Decompose plug-ins known from V0.54
for the GIMP V 0.99.10 and up.
In the directory

    ftp://members.aol.com/pkirchg/pub/gimp

you will find the following files:

    xcompose.txt                  : this document
    xcompose.tgz                  : gzipped tarfile with sources/documentation
    xcompose.linux.386.elf.tgz    : gzipped tarfile with Linux exectuable

Features:
  Decomposes RGB and RGBA-images into R/G/B, H/S/V, C/M/Y, C/M/Y/K
  and Alpha channels and vice versa.

Installation of executable
--------------------------
  To tell the GIMP about the COMPOSE/DECOMPOSE-plug-ins, copy the
  executables to /usr/local/lib/gimp/0.99.x/plug-ins .

Installation from source
------------------------
  The COMPOSE-plug-in needs two modifications to the GIMP V 99.10 to
  run correctly:
  1.: Apply this patch to libgimp/gimpmenu.c
      (needed for default gray-image in menu):

--- gimpmenu.c.orig     Sun Mar  9 02:00:20 1997
+++ gimpmenu.c  Mon Jun 30 07:22:41 1997

        g_free (label);
 
        if (images[i] == active_image)
-         gtk_menu_set_active (GTK_MENU (menu), i);
+         gtk_menu_set_active (GTK_MENU (menu), k);
 
        k += 1;
       }

  2.: Add the following library to pre_LDADD in your plug-in makefile:

        $(top_builddir)/libgimp/libgimpui.la

  3.: Add compose and decompose to your plug-in makefile
