s-take wrote another simple & easy OpenMeta application for searching, quicklook-ing, and renamaing OpenMeta tags. It's free and especially useful for renaming a tag name attached to multiple files at once.

He said in his blog post that he wrote it as test of OpenMeta framework. He used OpenMeta.h (and *.m) published on google code and it was very easy for him to write it. He believes that this simplicity in OpenMeta programming should help it to spread in the world quickly.

You can download it from here. Though it has only Japanese ReadMe.txt, it shouldn't be a problem as it's a very easy and intuitive program.

Looks like a nice little app, thanks for letting us know :) So you can't add tags to files with this right? (Just search, rename & preview.)

A couple of problems I noticed with it is it doesn't seems to recognise multi word tags. With Tagit you add underscores (e.g. multi_word_tag) & when searching in Finder you type "multi word tag", but neither of these show up in OMWizard.
Also if you close the window there doesn't seem to be any other way of opening it again without quitting & restating the app. (But we can't complain with a free app right :D )]]> http://ironicsoftware.com/community/comments.php?DiscussionID=624&Focus=3477#Comment_3477 2009-01-25T09:56:50-07:00 2010-09-08T22:53:00-07:00 BLUEFROG http://ironicsoftware.com/community/account.php?u=6

Just install free shell script and AppleScript executor "On_My_Command" (OMC) and add command with following content:

/Applications/omtool -a __DLG_INPUT_TEXT__ -p __OBJ_PATH__

(It takes use of OMtool which is, in this example, placed in /Applications/ folder.)

You can download OMCEdit.zip from here:

I exported "Add tag..." command to plist file which you can quickly import to OMC:

1) well I wonder if there is a way to get this context-menu in (Apple's) Finder too… Anybody?
2) Hoge, the Google-search-box does work now, …only when I select another file, it the tagging-HUD comes up the the previously added tags. Secondly, I seem to need to select first the "tagging-prompter"-applescript to get to the tagging interface. This means double cmd, then typing tag, then moving downward, selecting tag-prompter, hitting return… This is different from within Safari, as I noticed, where the tagging prompter shows up as first selection. All this needs some more work, even though its is free (and in my personal opinion looks better than Tags)

Just to add that this context-menu OMC command enables you to tag multiple selected files as well. If the file(s) is already tagged it will append new tag to the file, not replace it.

If you're crazy about Japanese Animation and Manga, it's a good news. I just happened to find that a guy, iphlox, wrote an applescript that downloads and adds OpenMeta tags to pictures on pixiv, Japanese online community for Manga artists . He also wrote another applescript that works great with Nico Nico Douga, Japanese video sharing community.

All the descriptions are written in Japanese. Moreover, I haven't yet tested these applescripts by myself but just read on the other blogs that other people used them. If you don't mind to invest your time for deciphering iphlox's blog for collecting illustrations by Japanese Manga artists, just try it.]]> http://ironicsoftware.com/community/comments.php?DiscussionID=624&Focus=4560#Comment_4560 2009-03-10T13:52:18-07:00 2010-09-08T22:53:00-07:00 Gotow http://ironicsoftware.com/community/account.php?u=578
