yes, I would love to have the full package. :)
Just for you Jack, a folder should appear on box.com in a few hours (I am on slow ADSL upload speed) called "Recipe Archives" containing 83meg of compressed recipes in various formats.

Around 1.16Gig uncompressed after all the duplicates had been more or less eliminated.

See if you can find me any more formats that I don't have as well as my main interest, FDX (Food Data Exchange).

I don't want MealMaster, too dirty a format to import. It's causing me lots of headaches.

No worries. The MealMaster archive is still uploading. 53 Meg at my upload speed is slow.

Box sync tells me still 47 minutes to go till finished that one. All the others are there.

Did you upload the recipes to box.net? I wouldn't mind getting the recipes as well if that's possible.

Damn, I knew I forgot something, Jack will kill me!!

Here is the link to the recipes folder that I forgot:

If you have any recipe formats of your own, feel free to upload them there!!!

Is it just me who cannot download the source to the program? I did PM fangles, but I guess he missed it. the link in the first page just takes me to the signup page for box.com I don't suppose any of you bookmarked the correct link for it? :)

unfortunately that link tells me "The item you are trying to access has either been deleted or is unavailable to you."

Ah well. It's just an interesting project and a shame I can't access it.

Thanks very much for replying though Jack, appreciated :)

I didn't invite anybody specifically, just clicked the "Share" button on the box home page for my files, it generated the link and I pasted it in the forum.

Seems to work for 8 people so far as I keep getting emails from box.com telling me who downloaded what and when and both recipe muncher and the recipes are going out of there almost every day.

Well, I just don't understand it. The first link on page one of this thread just takes me to the signup page.
Fangbeast first post in the thread wrote: --I constantly attempt to integrate his changes into RecipeMuncher and upload the latest program here:

https://www.box.com/signup/collablink/d ... c1c589d46b
I cannot find any other link to it within this thread. Jacks link doesn't work for me either... but the link you provided for the recipes themselves works fine. So I just don't know? Honest to god old boy, I am not trying to be a pain in the grinner or annoy you :(

[Edit]
Actually, I lie.... I have found the bloody link now elsewhere in the thread. but your First post, the link is broken. the link should be https://www.box.com/signup/collablink/d ... c1c589d46b found here
/me feels pretty bloody foolish now though :/

Thanks mate.
No problem. I have found more recipes from the living cookbook and a sorting and collating them. Will upload when I have got them all.

*****EDIT***** As stated in the first post, MealMaster is Fixed thanks to Bernd.

I just fed all my MealMaster files to this sucker and got 112,398 recipes (or thereabouts).

Now to try and push my luck.

*****EDIT***** 175,000 recipes and still importing:):):)
