i don't think that is necessary. the vms file contains already two
descriptions and a 16 byte creator string. I already take these
infos
out of the vms file with the creator. the only problem there is that
in the vmi the title/creator are 32 byte and there is only one 32
byte
string in the vms (dc info).
