Description: Photini
        =======
        
        A free, easy to use, digital photograph metadata (EXIF, IPTC, XMP) editing application.
        
        "Metadata" is said to mean "data about data".
        In the context of digital photographs this means information that isn't essential in order to display the image, but tells you something about it.
        For example a title and description of the scene or the date & time and the GPS coordinates of the camera's position when the picture was taken.
        
           "It doesn't try to be an all-singing, all-dancing image management powerhouse - it just lets you add information to photos, quickly and easily."
           
           -- `Linux Format`_ magazine, January 2013
        
        Why is it called Photini?
        Read my `blog post`_ on how I chose a name.

        Documentation
        -------------
        
        .. warning::
           This program is still under development.
           It is already usable but, like all other software, it has bugs.
           Before using it be sure to back up all your photographs (you do this anyway, right?) as I can't guarantee you won't accidentally damage them.
        
        Photini's documentation is a long way from complete, but you can read what's been written so far at http://photini.readthedocs.org/.

        Getting help

        If you encounter any problems installing or running Photini, please email jim@jim-easterbrook.me.uk and I'll respond as soon as I can.
        If you discover a bug and have a GitHub account then please file a bug report on the GitHub `"issues" page`_.
        
        Internationalisation
        --------------------
        
        Work has begun on providing Photini in multiple languages.
        I rely on users to do the translation, as I am not fluent in any language other than English.
        If you'd like to help, please join the `Photini team on Transifex`_.
        For more details, see the `localisation documentation`_.
