Hey Don,
If you really want drag and drop you can create a script droplet and put it in
the Dock, on your Desktop, or in the Finder Toolbar.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on run
beep
display dialog "This is a drag & drop application!"
end run
on open (fileList)
try
if length of fileList > 1 then
error "Only One Image Allowed!"
else
set imageFilePath to quoted form of (POSIX path of (item 1 of fileList))
set exifData to do shell script "exiftool " & imageFilePath
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
tell front text window
set text of selection to exifData
end tell
end tell
end if
on error errMsg number errNum
set sep to "=============================="
set e to sep & return & "Error: " & errMsg & return & sep & return ¬
& "Error Number: " & errNum & return & sep
beep
display dialog e
end try
end open
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* ExifTool is a command-line executable:
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
You can of course allow more than one image to be dragged.
I have not done any file-type checking in this script.
You could also change the run handler to allow clicking on the script in the
toolbar to act on the selected items in the Finder.
There are many available options.
