THIS (http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/pim/jhead) is NOT the home of this code. It is part of the CVS tree of the swap tree as a pragmatic measure as a JPEG>N3 conversion tool, but anyone working with sources or looking for the latest version of this software should go to the source, Matthias Wandel. I found the originals at his web site http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/ He did the work of untangling the EXIF tags within JPEG JFIF files. he says, """I got my information on the Exif format from: http://www.ba.wakwak.com/~tsuruzoh/Computer/Digicams/exif-e.html The official specs have since appeared on the web at: http://www.pima.net/standards/it10/PIMA15740/exif.htm """ for the record. timbl 2003/1
