No, I mean this commandline-tool for manipulating exif-tags:

eg kwickshow, konqueror, IrfanView (Windows or wine), exiftool itself (comand: exiftool <name of pic>
exiftool -comment <name of pic>

Ok:
1. renaming the raw-pic with exiftool into YYYYMMDD_HHMM_originalFilename.original-ext:
exiftool -P -d %Y%m%d_%H%M_%%f.%%e "-filename<DateTimeOriginal" .

2. take out jpg-pic out of the canon-raw-files:
exiftool -P -b -JpgFromRaw -w .jpg .

3. take the exif-information into the jpg-pic from the coresponding raw-files:
exiftool -P -tagsfromfile %d%f.crw -ext jpg .

4. bring in some aditional exif- and iptc-information
exiftool -P -Copyright="Christoph Knauer" -CopyrightNotice="Christoph Knauer" -Contact="cool.chris65 at web.de" -LanguageIdentifier=DE -Country-PrimaryLocationCode=GER -Country-PrimaryLocationName="Germany" -Province-State="NDS Niedersachsen" -City="Melle" -Comment="This is an example-Comment" .

5. first view with digikam (new started or allways running)

6. if needed manipulating the coment of some more pic by commandline (batch)
exiftool -comment="This is a new comment"

After 6. the comment in digikam is allways the same as before, also after restarting digikam, but other tools shows the new comment.

The attachment is my batchfile which I use for doing step 1 to 4

Greetings, Christoph
