The developers behind Yep & Leap (two excellent apps for tagging/organzing
PDFs and other files) have released an open source tagging framework for Mac
based on extended attributes called Open Meta. I believe this solves many
of the problems inherent in the various tagging applications on the Mac. As
a heavy user of both Yep and Skim, I would *love* to see Skim add integrated
support for Open Meta tags. The ability to view tags as well as modify them
in Skim would be helpful. This could be accomplished with applescripts from
Skim but an integrated approach would be much nicer and the fact that they
use extended attributes should play nicely with Skim's architecture. The
code is available and is released under Apache license. Any thoughts?
