Sorry I don't know anything about the stuff my Terminal echoed when I typed in 'echo $PATH' maybe you can help me with that.

Thanks in didn't work, here is my Terminal output: Last login: Thu Jul 28 19:57:54 on ttys000 I guess Applescript would work too but I don't know how to write it either… I have found one very interesting blog entry:īut I find Shell code too confusing to do this:Įxiftool IPTC:Keywords+='$MyKeywordsString' $file Problem is to write a shell script that works with those two variables (one of them is an array of course containing the file names) Next thing would be to use a shell script with exiftool to attach the keyword. I use Automator to ask for the Keywords and store it in a variable. I would like to select jpgs in the Finder and use the services option in the context menu to attach a keyword to the images. From what I've discovered, the XMP:DateTimeOriginal has the least priority, so it's used first, while the EXIF:DateTimeOriginal has the highest priority, so it's used last.I have searched my * off but couldn't find anything that made sense to me. It uses the fact that when ExifTool has two assignments that affect the same tag, the latter takes precedence. This will set the FileModifyDate by trying all the various metadata Windows uses for the 'Date Taken' property, in order of priority. So the best command for you to try would be:ĮxifTool '-FileModifyDate
