The Universal Import / Export Module For Your Program


What is Meddle?

Meddle is a combination of importers and exporters which are communicating though a common stream format.

By writing a plugin for your program which can use this stream format, you will be able to read and write a long range of file formats with a minimum amount of coding.

Since the communication is made through a stream format, the API for your plugin will remain constant as new file types are added. This will minimize changes to your program as Meddle evolves

File Formats

Meddle is targeting graphical file formats, mainly for 3D applications. Examples include:
As Meddle evolves this list will grow.

To Do List

We are currently in the planning stage and is working on a prototype as well as defining the stream format.
The work is ongoing through a discussion forum.

We would very much like your participance. To join, just send the administrator a note.
