Jacque, I don't know how to use the terminal, but I had tried both of your other suggestions.

Here's a script that doesn't need Terminal, you can run it in Rev. I mistakenly said it uses a shell command, but it uses AppleScript. Put this script into a button:

on touchAppFile
  answer file "Choose a stanadlone application:"
  if it = "" then exit touchAppFile
  put it into tAppName
  if char -4 to -1 of tAppName <> ".app" then
    beep
    answer error "Not an application file."
    exit touchAppFile
  end if
  put revMacFromUnixPath(tAppName) into tFilePath
  replace quote with "\"&quote in tFilePath -- escape
  put the cTouchScript of this cd into tScript
  replace "*FPATH*" with tFilePath in tScript
  do tScript as AppleScript
  get the result
  if it contains "error" then answer it
end touchAppFile

Then create a custom card property, call it "cTouchScript", and set the property contents to this:

tell application "Finder"
update file "*FPATH*"
end tell


When you click the button, it will ask you for an app and then update the Finder.

Scott Morrow's suggestion about checking the pList is a good one too, I hadn't thought of that. If the pList doesn't list your custom icons, then the Finder won't know about them.
