Suggestion for the convert_regions.config file

[StarGeek]

The tag names in the convert_regions.config aren't very clear and to use them, you would have to look through the config file to figure out which one to use.  I'd suggest making them more obvious and adding shortcuts so as not to break existing scripts.

For example

MyRegion	->	MPRegion2MWGRegion
MyRegion2	->	IPTCRegion2MWGRegion
MyRegionMP	->	MWGRegion2MPRegion
MyRegionMP2	->	IPTCRegion2MPRegion
MyRegionIPTC	->	MWGRegion2IPTCRegion
MyRegionIPTC2	->	MPRegion2IPTCRegion

And the shortcut section

Code Select Expand

%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::Shortcuts = (
MyRegion => 'MPRegion2MWGRegion',
MyRegion2 => 'IPTCRegion2MWGRegion',
MyRegionMP => 'MWGRegion2MPRegion',
MyRegionMP2 => 'IPTCRegion2MPRegion',
MyRegionIPTC => 'MWGRegion2IPTCRegion',
MyRegionIPTC2 => 'MPRegion2IPTCRegion',
);
