10.4: Automate Spotlight comment tags via AppleScript

FYI, this Automator workflow does the same thing, and is a bit more convenient, as you can enter the comment on the fly without modifying the code: http://www.automatorworld.com/2005/05/03/add-spotlight-comments/

The workflow can be saved as a folder action the same as this hint.

10.4: Automate Spotlight comment tags via AppleScript
Authored by: leary on Jun 14, '05 11:45:07AM

Actually, what I love about this is that it makes things completely automatic. I've attached this to a project folder with the name of the project as the tag. Now every file created in this folder is automatically tagged with the project name. I've deleted the line in the script that launches a confirmation dialog, so now the process is completely seamless.

Thanks for this!
