def text_layer_new(image, text, fontname, size, unit):
# Python wrapper for gimp_text_layer_new()
Creates a new text layer.
This procedure creates a new text layer. The arguments are kept as simple as necessary for the normal case. All text attributes, however, can be modified with the appropriate gimp_text_layer_set_*() procedures. The new layer still needs to be added to the image, as this is not automatic. Add the new layer using Gimp.Image.insert_layer.
