A while ago I blogged about a program to view the contents of a thumbs.db file. In the comments Christophe Monniez AKA d-fence (who created the FCCU GNU/Linux boot CD) brought to my attention the open source project Vinetto which is a forensics tool to examine Thumbs.db files written by Michel Roukine. It is a command line python script that works on Linux, Mac OS X and Cygwin(win32). Now I tried it on Cygwin and thought it was a great tool to have in the old tool belt, you can never have enough tools. Since I do not know python I thought it would be a good time to learn it. Well I am still trying to learn it and hopefully in the future will be providing so new tools in it.
Now as most of you know most of my tools will run on Linux (command line) and windows (command line and gui) and I try and strive to make sure that they will work on both (some will only work on windows because that is where the libraries are). Now I saw that Vinetto would work under Cygwin but not win32 natively. So I thought I would see what it would take to make it so it would work natively under win32. Those that just want to use the program and not worry about what I changed can skip to the bottom to the link where the program is (I have compiled the program so there is no need to have python on your system to use the program).
After downloading it and making sure that I had the pre reqs ( Python-2.3 or later and PIL (Python Imaging Library) 1.1.5 or later) installed I opened up the files and looked at what would have to change. Here is all that had to change.
Changes to program vinetto
Line 1 change #!/usr/local/bin/python to #!c:\python25\python
Line 160 chage /usr/share/vinetto/header to ./res/header
Line 161 change /usr/share/vinetto/quantization to ./res/quantization
Line 162 change /usr/share/vinetto/huffman to ./res/huffman
Line 320 change open(outputdir + "/" + NUMBERED_THUMBS_DIR + "/" + TNfname(SIDstr, "2") + ".jpg", \
to open(outputdir + "/" + TNfname(SIDstr, "2") + ".jpg", \
changes to vinreport.py program
Line 62 change /usr/share/vinetto/HtRepTemplate.html to ./res/HtRepTemplate.html
changes to the setup.py program
replace everything with the following
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(console=['vinetto'])
run the following to create the executable
python setup.py py2exe
Once the executable has been created (if you already have python and PIL then you do not need to create the executable) you just need to copy the res directory underneath the dist directory (if you are lost here do not worry I have everything compiled for you and if you have done this before you will understand). I then tested it out and it works great (there is one error that states the number of arguments are not correct that I have not looked into) and outputs the files and created the html report.
So future changes/additions for this I think will be to add a autoit gui front end for the windows users who are command line adverse and an option to scan a directory (top most directory) to find all the thumbs.db files. Any other additions I would have to use the program so more
For more information about this program go to the website http://vinetto.sourceforge.net/.

The following will fix the error "that states the number of arguments are not correct that I have not looked into"
Change in program vinetto
os.system("mkdir " + opts.outputdir + "/" + NUMBERED_THUMBS_DIR)
to
os.system("mkdir " + opts.outputdir)
You also need to install py2exe and PIL (Python Image Library) to make compilation successfully.
