Nikon Coolpix 2500 & USB

[Joel Hammer]

Thanks for the info.

Using vi -b there certainly is information dropped out when the picture is
edited and saved with xv. I am not sure why this has to be. You would THINK
that xv would preserve that information somewhere, but, I guess nothing is
perfect.

The only thing I would like xv or whatever to save would be the date of the
picture, which is stuck in at the beginning of the file. I guess I could strip
that out somehow, if it were necessary.
