Hi Laex,

Well, Klaus, first I have to confess that what I *actually* do is
just run the exiv2 utility from an ugly dosbox (actually, a clean,
sparse, elegant Emacs shell buffer :-), then run my Rev script,
then run the utility again ..... (I do this once a month - wasn't
worth the coding time to build it into a script)
Aha :-)
But it can be done from Rev and shell ... I'm not an expert in
this, so there may be easier ways than this ....
put shell("exiv2 test.jpg")
I think a shell is run in the current defaultFolder of Rev - is
that set to your home folder ?
Here's a script I have used; note I ran into trouble with quoting
of file names containing spaces - I eventually figured out that I
needed to quote the command name, and I cheated and moved the files
into a folder with no spaces in its name, so the "answer" I give
when I run this is something like "D:\Downloads\aaa" I can't find
a form that works when my photo folder is say "D:\Our Documents
\exiv2-0.6.1-win\aaa"
I played around a bit and remembered shortfilepath()!!!
This is exactly what we need for doing "shell".
So i tested this script and it works nicely :-)
I put everything into the Revfolder but will work with any path!
...
put the folder into df
put shortfilepath(df & "/exiv2.exe) into kom
## Does NOT work without .EXE!!!???
put shortfilepath(df & "/test1.jpg") into bild
## = image in german :-)
get shell(kom && "-pt" && bild) into fld 1
...
Great :-)
Do you have plans to port/compile this one to/for OS X?
(He asked him innocently...;-)
