GPicSync - 2007

See the license.txt in the same folder. For help and documentation: http://code.google.com/p/gpicsync/

GPicSync also embed two great free GPL tools (thanks to their authors!):

WINDOWS:

Download the last executable at GPicSync website: http://code.google.com/p/gpicsync/

Launch the windows installer gpicsync-xx.exe

LINUX:

$ python gpicsync-GUI.py

GPicSync requires:

GPicSync was successfully on Linux Ubuntu "Feisty Fawn" (Python 2.5 is already installed as a default for this distribution and you can add wxpython and python-imaging from synaptic for example). In synaptic install exiftool, python-wxgtk2.8 and python-imaging python-unidecode.

Note: On Mandrive 2007.1 Exiftool is known as perl-Image-ExifTool.

To install GoogleEarth on Ubuntu:

The first time you run the Linux version you won't have a configuration file. To generate one in your home folder quit GPicSync with the "Quit and save settings" (this is userful if you want to fine tune Geonames for example)

If you prefer the command-line version (or if you can't have the right wxpython for your distro):

$ python gpicsync.py --help

Linux version issues:

As time of writting (14 of april):

Still test to carry but main fuctionnalies are there. Don't hesitate to report any problem you may encounter.

Thanks and contributions:

Thanks to Marc Nozell for testing GPicSync on Linux before I had the time to do it and for putting some specific Windows code behind a plateform check (changing "exiftool.exe" to "exiftool" for Linux in geoexif.py)

Big Thanks to all the users reporting bugs or asking for feature requests (see contributions page on the wiki project + issues page + dedicated Google Group).
