Namexif™ is a tool to automatically rename photos with the date they were shot.
Digital cameras have their own clock and record the date to each photos with a precision of a second.
Since the date and time is recorded for each photos (provided it is an EXIF compliant digital camera), Namexif™ is able to rename these photos according to the date.
Doing so will:
make chronological order same as alphabetical one,
set a unique name to your photos

Why does the name start with the year?
Namexif renames photos starting with the year, then month, day, hour, minute, second. Doing so keeps chronological order right when your file browser displays filenames in alphabetical order.
What if two or more pictures have the same EXIF date?
This can happen if, for example, your camera has a high speed shooting mode. In this case, you will end up with several photos having the same date.
In such a case, Namexif will add dashes to differentiate filenames with same date.
For example, say you have 3 photos taken on August 15th 2007 at 6PM 5mn and 27 seconds:
2007-08-15 18.05.27.jpg
2007-08-15 18.05.27-.jpg
2007-08-15 18.05.27--.jpg
What if I select photos which have no EXIF data?
Photos or pictures without EXIF data are not renamed by Namexif. They keep their original name: no change!
What is the eight characters format?
In order to burn a CDROM, you may requiere an ISO 9660 mode 1 file systems where filenames are in UPPER case and up to 8 + 3 characters. In that format, Namexif still relies on EXIF date, but compute the difference between the EXIF date from the photo and 1/1/1998. That difference time's unit is the second. Finally, Namexif convert that result from decimal base to hexadecimal base. Time mapping from h00000000 to hFFFFFFFF equals 1/1/1998 to 1/1/2134.
