How do I export only text in the comments in a jalbum album? Hopefully in one single file...

Open the project, then choose Tools > Open Directories > Image directory (CTRL-SHIFT-I). Open the .jalbum directory. There, you'll find comments.properties, which is a plain text file of the comments. There will be one such file in each folder, however, so you might have to combine them to get all the comments in the project.

	list all comments.groovy (277 bytes)
	All comments to txt file.groovy (712 bytes)

Save the attached file to the tools folder within the jAlbum config folder. Launch jAlbum, select a project and then run the tool. The results, all files that have a comment and their comment are printed to the system console (F7).

Added alternative to save comments to 'All comments.txt' file in the project's root folder
