OMFG

Evidently there has been something lurking in the depths of HFS+ all this time and this meta-data fiend never knew! Page 7 of the “article”:http://arstechnica.com/reviews/os/macosx-10.4.ars/ I mentioned in my previous post (all of 5 minutes ago) has an example command line “tool”:http://dev.bignerdranch.com/public/bnr/xattr.dmg that lets you assign meta-data tags to files!

The example given speaks for itself (and if it doesn’t then you don’t get the meta-data geek merit badge):

% xattr –set name John file
% xattr –set color red file

% xattr –list file
file
color red
name John

I repeat for /emphasis/

*OMFG*
