[KimDaBa] Re: Anyone converted a PhotoShop Elements 3 database to Kimdaba?

[Stephen J. Gowdy]

Hmm, so I've made some progress on this by exporting the database as xml
from Access. It is a bit tricky. I found infomration on google (which is
now only in its cache) on decoding the array and it seems to work (at
least for one test picture it did give me the number of the only tag it
has, the other number it gave me for a non-tag didn't seem to match what
I'd expect so perhaps I don't understand something). Anyway, so it seems
possible but it probably will not be completely automatic (I did the
export, chopped up the file, used perl to decode base64 and then use a c
program to turn that into a list of ints which correspond to the index in
a table...). I'll see what I can do with this but don't expect anything
soon...
