In advance of using VersionCue, I need to do some script hacking to synchronize the lock state of files in our CMS with the lock state as reflected on a user's local machine via InDesign .idlk files.

I notice that these files contain data and that some of it is binary. While I can probably just blindly copy the bytes from the samples I have, I'd like to actually understand what the values mean.

I did determine by experiment that the first text field is the name of the user that owns the lock and obviously the second field is the absolute path of the file, but I'd like to know what the non-text bits in between mean.

I didn't see anything obvious in a quick scan of the SDK header files but I'm not really sure what I should be looking for in there anyway.

Does anyone know what the binary data is or where it's documented or otherwise defined (e.g., in a .h file)?

Thanks,

Eliot
