Can importing get easier?

mood: curious
Well, I am thinking that IJ is the better alternative (vs. GJ) but sadly I dont see if there is a way to import my LJ journal entries from the past into this journal. Anyone know?

What platform are you using? I don't know anything about the tools available for Windows, but I know they exist, and someone will be able to advise you. If you're on a Mac, there's a neat Python tool that will import your entries, and archive your entries, comments, and icons to your own hard drive. Sadly, though, it won't migrate comments; I'm hoping someone figures out a way of doing that, but I don't know of anything at present.

Linux is what I use.

Then the python tool should work for you, I'm pretty sure. Hang on a couple of minutes and I'll find the link.

-- okay, the tool is at http://antennapedia.livejournal.com/266462.html. The author says it should work on most Linux distros; I hope it solves at least some of the problem for you!

Ha, you beat me to it -- that's the one I was going to suggest.

The Python tool worked perfectly for me, on Ubuntu Feisty. What distro are you using?
