Steps to Include the Arrow Making Script in GIMP
Works in GIMP 2.10!
Works in GIMP 2.10!
First of all, download the ZIPPED script.
You know what to do with a ZIP file, right?
Then take a look at the menu bar. You should find the Scripts location if you look in:
Edit -> Preferences -> Folders
There it should list your scripts folder(s) one after another.
How they look like might depend on what OS you are currently working on.
Make sure you have placed the SCM file there.
How to Use the Script?
First go make a PATH with just two points
Then invoke the script by going to:
Tools -> Arrow...
A new window will open where you can change the default settings.
Click OK and you will see how GIMP makes a new arrow for you!

As it wasn't stated, the original post linked by kyonodes was by a person going by rich2005 who was looking for scripts or plugins to draw well defined arrow-pointers in Gimp without the tedium of actually using the pencil or other already existing tools.
The zip file which is provided within kyonides' first post, and the original post at the gimp forum, also includes a well written pdf file on use.
