Hi,

First, Exiftool is the greatest app i found, the most complete and easy to use for my need.
Thanks a lot Phil.

To import my all life pictures in Bento I need to create csv text file. So I use something like

exiftool -t -S -q -f -filename -aperture -ISO -City Pictures.

But then I need to change all TAB by ;
so i use sed :  

sed 's/(TAB)/;/g' out.txt < outcoma.txt.

Is it possible to change the delimiter in exiftool : ; instead of TAB  (or whatever the user need) ?
Is it possible in this format (all in one line for one picture) to have a -path/filename option ?

Hi Johann. Try  something like -p '$directory/$filename, $aperture, ...'

I think that may allow you to do what you want. - Phil
