--- Begin Message ---Package: freeguide Version: 0.10.4-2 Severity: wishlist Recent versions of 'freeguide' keep TV listings in '.ser' files: % file ~/.freeguide/day-2007-03-27-B.ser /home/alfie/.freeguide/day-2007-03-27-B.ser: Java serialization data, version 5 A search of the 'freeguide' man page, docs, help files and Wiki doesn't seem turn up a mention of this format. Online there were a few messages on programmers mailing lists, but nothing for the novice. I couldn't find '.ser' in the 'Wotsit' database, but there is an entry here: http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=.ser&Search=Search It says it's a kind of Java data file, though nothing specific about 'freeguide'. Yet the file format seems important to 'freeguide'; it would be better if the docs had an explanation of what '.ser' files were to 'freeguide', why '.ser' is better than 'xml', and whether '.ser' is convertible to 'xml' with some standard util**, or is it a dead-end file format. (**the older 'freeguide' xml files could be used to show TV info in 'tvtime'.)
