i'm using python-fu, i want to copy the filter iwarp i added to one layer to another layer i just added to the document. 

my code:

    document = gimp.image_list()[0]
    layer_with_filter = document.layers[0]
    layer_without_filter = document.layers[3]

thanks
You don't "copy a filter"? Either you copy a layer, or you run the filter again, with the same arguments, on the other layer. If your problem is to use IWarp interactively on one filter, and have a script to replay it automatically on some other layer, then it's a whole other problem, AFAIK there is no way to retrieve the arguments of a filter that has been used interactively. And IWarp makes this even harder, since there is no useful way to call it non-interactively.

indeed i meant to run the filter again with the same arguments non-interactively
