The reason I am re-doing the AppleScript is because I want the code to be somewhat
cross-platform. I know it has to be tweaked a bit to run on both Windows and Mac, but
at least most of it will remain the same. I would like the comment part to be
cross-platform so that it could go to a Windows or OS 9 or OS X or Linux computer.
Currently, it will go to OS X. Does this mean I should use the comment field inside
the jpeg?
I'm also going to need to make thumbnails of these images to view on the web. Could I
create an action in Photoshop that is callable from Perl? The thumbnail size would be
constant.
Thanks,
Kathy

Question: is that the Mac file's comment, as Chris assumed, or is it a
cross-platform compatible comment field inside the JPEG file?
The latter is possible, too, but it requires manipulation of the
contents of the file, and some knowledge on the structure of a JPEG
file.
