Imagine this: You have a library of some 350 or so CDs and 80 or so DVDs full of graphics files. You’ve been asked to separate and catalog the photos out of all of those discs, for easy searching.

Doesn’t it seem like there would be a program or two that could do that nicely? There isn’t really. The market-leader, Extensis Portfolio, attempts to catalog ALL the files on the disc, not just the TIFFs and JPEGs as I have told it to. I have wasted so much time trying to figure out how to make this easy to do. I should just code the damn thing, and sell it, and retire in 3 years. I swear I’d be haflfway done with the program with the time I’ve spent trying to accomplish this task. Bollocks!
