That goes without saying; I have no interest in hoarding stuff except perhaps to avoid embarrassment :-)

But right now these two scripts together are barely a couple hundred lines of shell, completely tailored to my specific needs -- my preferred workflow is more akin to a "PIM sync" (like say jpilot) for a camera than a typical photo app!

And while I'm sure the basic stuff is doable "in shell", it won't be pretty (hey that was not in the original discussion so I'm safe!)

So you see there's a bit of a gap there :-) Still, I guess I'll give it a shot, just for kicks...
