10.3: Create icon previews and more in the Terminal
It looked sort of a nice way to create thumbnails for image files, but it turned rather useless for me since instead of just adding a thumbnail, it seems to delete the original file after creating a copy of it, effectively erasing the original creation date and any custom comments the file might have. Is there any trick for it not to mess with more than just adding (or updating) an icon to the resource fork?
10.3: Create icon previews and more in the Terminal
First, create a copy of your image file yourself. Run the sips command over that COPY. Then view the info for the modified image (cmd-i). At the top of the info window is the tiny icon. Click on the icon so that it's surrounded by a blue line (look carefully! It's not very obvious.) Do a Copy command to put the icon image in the clipboard. Now view the info for your original image, click on the icon and Paste.
