Does anyone know a program that will batch export the contents of the LiveJournal to disk? The internal exporter offered on LJ.com only allows you to do it month by month, which would be a big pain.

Thanks! That worked. These files are in XML format, right? It's not immediately clear.

I get the error "No such file or directory: 'ljdump.config'" I did make a copy of the config file and removed the sample bit so that file should exist. Is there a special command I should be typing or should "python ljdump.py" be enough or is there a special directory I should be doing this from?

I use xJournal and it can export the entire contents of your LJ into, well, a .plist (XML) file, which may or may not be useful to you. But the app has a good History viewer to look at the file with.

Run it from within the directory ljdump is stored in. Use cd to navigate there.
