NIP /VIPS (From Foetz download area) How does this work?

I installed the tardists for VIPS and NIP from Foetz download dir.
They install to /usr/local/vips/ and /usr/local/nip/
I did note that /usr/local/nip/bin/run-nip.sh needed to force set VIPSHOME=/usr/local/vips as it could not discover it automatically, and to have that script run the nip binary from /usr/local/nip/bin/nip and not $VIPSHOME/bin/nip as that will not exist.

No errors on starting nip.. I can see thumbnail images just fine when browsing when inserting an image file but when loading an image I get an error:
"Workspaces.untitled.A3.Image_file" is not defined
(note: A3 can be A1, or B1, etc..)

Has anyone gotten this to work before? Maybe I am missing an environment variable or my mod to run-nip.sh is not good, etc..
