I have not personally used it, but it should be able to export directly to csv and is a command line tool (IIRC it was forked from dctool at some point) miika On Sat, Aug 18, 2018 at 10:00 AM, Simon Eigeldinger < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Willem, > > thanks for the info. > well i need just the dc data anyway. > so maybe just importing the dc data, exporting all things and then use the > csv data might be enough. > then not saving the logbook xml file. > > xml isn't nice to be used mainly as info for blind people so xml isn't the > way i think i might use my data. > xml is human readable but not convenient. *smile* > > I guess dctool also might to be able to download the dives but not be able > to convert that to csv. > > Greetings, > Simon > > Am 18.08.2018 um 16:39 schrieb Willem Ferguson: > >> On 18/08/2018 15:58, Simon Eigeldinger wrote: >> >>> Hi all, >>> >>> I am Simon and I am a blind diver. >>> I have now around 140 dives under my belt and have no dive computer at >>> the moment which is a problem. >>> Mainly the problem is that i can't read the display but thats a >>> different story. >>> I want/should take a dive computer with me to act as a black box if >>> something happens. >>> And also as a logging tool later when i am out and i want to know >>> something. >>> Is there a small tool or could someone write one to get the data off of >>> the dive computer and then write it in a text file or csv file to make all >>> the info on the dive accessible for me. >>> I don't know if dive computers also log the dive profile that way that >>> it saves each sensor reading in a internal table with time, depth, water >>> temperature and other info and if that also could be exported. >>> the problem is i can't use most of the diving software because of their >>> graphical nature and the problem how the GUI has been made. >>> >>> I know there are not many blind divers around but such a tool would be >>> pretty handy. >>> my main OS is Windows but a command line tool would be the most portable >>> to be multiplatform. >>> >>> i am also looking for a cheap dive computer for that because i guess the >>> more expensive ones have features i never use. *smile*. >>> The only gases i currently use is normal air and nitrox. >>> >>> would be great if someone could help out or knows a tool that could do >>> that. >>> >>> Greetings and thanks, >>> Simon >>> >>> --- >>> >> >> Simon, >> >> Firstly, as far as obtaining text data from the dive log is concerned, >> here are a few (maybe limited) options. >> >> As you are probably aware, Subsurface can export dive logs in csv format. >> Go File -> export -> CSV.
