Hi,
I have a quick question with regards to creating symbolic links. Would creating a symbolic link from one directory to a file in another cause any issues for users that are currently logged into the box. I don't believe it will unless they are using the file in question, but I would like... (2 Replies)

MaPiVi - Picture Viewer and Organizer
MaPiVi means Martin's Picture Viewer
DESCRIPTION
JPEG picture viewer / image management system with meta info support written in Perl/Tk for UNIX, Mac OS X and Windows.
I wrote mapivi just for me, because I needed a image viewer which is also able to display and edit meta infos of JPEG pictures, like EXIF,
JPEG comments and IPTC/IIM infos. As hobby photographer I am mostly interested in the EXIF infos (like timestamp, camera model, focal
length, exposure time, aperture, etc.) and the possibility to add and edit IPTC infos and JPEG comments. But I also want to rename
pictures according to their internal date/time and to do lossless rotation, lossless cropping and other stuff.
mapivi can be found here: http://mapivi.de.vu (link to the mapivi site) or if this won't work: http://herrmanns-stern.de (real site)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mapivi (download)
I would be happy to receive some feedback (e.g. on which os mapivi works), bugfixes, patches or suggestions about mapivi.
