I've cobbled together my first Automator app

Here's a problem: I need to modify content of a specific EXIF tag in RAW files, and I want to use exiv2 for that. Oh, I need to do that on macOS. Since Exiv2 is available in Brew, installing it on macOS is a matter of running the brew install exiv2 command. I have no problems using the tool from the command line, but I thought I'd give Apple Automator a try.

A quick research, and half an hour later I had my first Automator app ready. Strictly speaking, it's a droplet, because you're supposed to drop files onto it. But, whatever.

Admittedly, it's ridiculously simple tool, but it does the job. And since I'm not willing to invest any serious time and effort into mastering Automator right now, I'll just use what I have.

Everything deserves a name, and my super simple app is no exception. I named it MEH-WriteImageDescription (MEH stands for Micro Exiv2 Helper), because that's exactly what it does: drop RAW and/or JPEG files onto the droplet, enter a description when prompted, and the app writes the text into the Exif.Image.ImageDescription EXIF tag of each file.

If you're interested, you can get the app (along with other creations I might add later), by cloning teh Git repository using the git clone https://codeberg.org/dmpop/teh.git command. Alternatively, you can download everything as a ZIP archive from Codeberg.
