So, I've looked in CPAN, and I've looked at perl.com and I've looked here, and I've been unable to find anything on reading/editing/writing the EXIF headers in a JPEG (or other) image file.

I see that Sourceforge has a project for libexim, but no documentation on how to use it. No documentation in /usr/share/doc/packages/libexif, which is already installed on my SuSE notebook. Too much noise when I search Google.

Anyone got any suggestions on where to look for documentation on connecting to libexim? Any ideas on connecting to it from Perl?

Preemptive thanks to the Monks.
