I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: exiftool csv file
Hi Micha,

If you can write your own simple Perl script to parse the file, then use can easily use the Image::ExifTool routines to do all the hard work, but the command-line application that is distributed with the libraries doesn't have this functionality.

Another option is to load the file into a spreadsheet and reformat each line as an exiftool command, then export to text and run as a batch file.
