Recipe management software?

Has anyone done any recipe management software? Specifically dealing with the import of MealMaster recipes?
I don't want to re-invent the wheel and I have 250,000 recipes I want to import and manage

Sorry:
The first list is a sourceforge project that claims that bility.
I thought you wanted to know about it...

I actually knew about those sites and format information when the author was still around developing mealmaster. At that time, I wasn't coding (large hiatus) and still had real, paid work.
Was hoping someone had done this already so I didn't have to. Got enough code lying around to break and bug infest as it is.
I add more bugs than I fix these days.

It's not a bug... it's a
feature!

I might have some hour or so a day to assist you if you needed it.
You know... I really want this as my new avatar!
Gee, I post in the circus and I get the local clowns. Go figure.
I didn't see Dare2's post yet!

I realise that this is an old topic but do you still have time to assist? I absolutely do not understand the code in that link and there are so many variations for Mealmaster.
Code: Select all
my $mm = MealMaster->new();
my @recipes = $mm->parse("t/31000.mmf");
foreach my $r (@recipes) {
print "Title: " . $r->title . "\n";
print "Categories: " . join(", ", sort @{$r->categories}) . "\n";
print "Yield: " . $r->yield . "\n";
print "Directions: " . $r->directions . "\n";
print "Ingredients:\n";
foreach my $i (@{$r->ingredients}) {
print " " . $i->quantity .
" " . $i->measure .
" " . $i->product .
"\n";
}
This looks like Double-Dutch, Triple French and Quadruple German to me.

Looks like a piece of code from a "Perl Obfuscating Contest".
By the way:
http://grecipe-manager.sourceforge.net/
Works on Windows too!

Are you a chef on your free time?

Actually it looks like the code could parse XML to me... with a little MOD you could have a universal format!
It seems thatthe records are divided into some XML style obfuscations. Since I don't have any meal master files to look at I am just guessing here...
