I have a whole bunch of different photo editing programs.

IrfanView and/or XnView do most of what I want. They're
easy, super-fast and free. However, one thing they both
lack is a clone-stamp or other healing tool for fixing
minor blemishes whether they be dust bunnies, zits,
scratches on scanned pics, or whatever.

Is anyone aware of a plug-in that might work with IrfanView
or XnView? Or even another small fast prorgam that will
do the same kind of thing?

You might give Paint.NET a try. I just downloaded it and have only
spent limited time trying it out, but so far I am impressed. It's
supported by an enthusiastic user community, some of whose members
have come up with very useful plugins.

Note that if you don't already have .NET 2.0 Framework, you will have
to download and install it first. It's free and the Paint.NET site has
a link to the download page.

Paint.NET itself is free, but its creators do ask for a donation.

Hope this is helpful
