1PUX - need some help
Hi 1Password folks,
I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place - feel feel free to move it if desired.
This past week, I've spent a fair amount of time reworking the mrc-converter-suit...

Lots of progress. The converter suite can now generate 1PIF or 1PUX. The default will be 1PUX.
I have a little more clean-up, testing and documentation to complete, but I'm really happy with the results so far.
How did I work around the issues I mention above?
I decided to let 1Password 8 work for me. I created sample records for each category, and a special record that contains the 1Password data types (this allows the convert driver or the individual converters to create custom fields). These records are exported to a 1PUX file, and it is used as input to a 1PUX tool I wrote. It can dump a 1PUX for reading, or it can be run in a generate mode that is a parser/code-builder. The parser/code-builder generates all the required PUX templates and data tables, including the necessary field attributes for all the stock fields and the basic data types. These field attributes are generated and stored in a simplified, space-efficient manner to make reading the PUX generator code as easy as reading the PIF generator code.
I'm hoping to release an update soon.
