Thanks for the info.
Using vi -b there certainly is information dropped out when the picture is
edited and saved with xv. I am not sure why this has to be. You would THINK
that xv would preserve that information somewhere, but, I guess nothing is
perfect.
The only thing I would like xv or whatever to save would be the date of the
picture, which is stuck in at the beginning of the file. I guess I could strip
that out somehow, if it were necessary.

Here is something I saved:

This is an old thread but I just joined this newsgroup. There is a
great little program by Matthias Wandel called jhead (see
http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/). This program, in addition to
displaying the EXIF-headers, can also be used to run any conversion
program/editor to an image and it copies the EXIF-data from the old
image to the edited one.
Then you can combine jhead + gimp/jpegtran/whatever into the "external
editors" section of the gqview options-dialog. The result is that
while viewing your photos with gqview you can rotate and edit your
camera pictures with a few clicks and retain the EXIF-data!
