====== Skype History Access ======
I want the Skype history to be exportable and readable by other programs. 
  * E.g. to search it with beagle
  * E.g. to being able to copy/export the whole history

There are 2 ways to achieve this: 
  * over the API (this is **not** what we do here)
  * **accessing the files directly**

The **file format** is described nowhere on the net \\
I reverse-engineered it as far as I could/needed.
  * [[skype:File format|File format]]

I wrote **Python classes** that can access the file records.
  * [[skype:Code:SkypeHistory.py]]  - Classes
  * [[skype:Code:SkypeHistory2Html.py]]  - Export full or part of the history to html

**I welcome you to add content** here, especially to the file format section!




Correct me if I'm wrong, but no part of the Skype EULA says it is not allowed.
