I need to export CDL data to a text file. Currently, I copy the CDL data, paste that into a spreadsheet, cut and paste, copy this paste, copy that, paste here and hope I haven't made any mistakes ...

If a script could take the CDL (Colorista Free) info and export it to a text file that would be really nice.
Even better would be to have the project name in the id spot as well.
The file should be named for the project as well: xx0020_v400003.cdl


Here's the format of the cdl file:

<ColorCorrection id="xx0020_v400003">
<SOPNode>
<Slope>2.05144 1.48947 1.19991</Slope>
<Offset>-0.371549 -0.232112 -0.114655</Offset>
<Power>0.853959 0.861115 0.883567</Power>
</SOPNode>
<SatNode>
<Saturation>0.7</Saturation>
</SatNode>
</ColorCorrection>

Thanks!

Am I the only one that has this problem?
For the last few years everyone seems to need CDLs ...
Is there another way of doing it that I'm missing?

Well, no one seems to be interested ...
If anyone else has the need/problem, I have a pretty nice Excel spreadsheet that does all the copying and pasting of data.

Just paste the keyframe data, key in the shotname and version, select and save the data to a text file.

I'd be happy to share the Excel file, if anyone wants it.
