BatchSpot'em... Aimed primarily at users unfamiliar with Automator, this application enables you to add your own Spotlight keywords to a batch of Finder items. Look at it as an extension to the keyword feature in iPhoto. You can add as many keywords as you like. Your entries will appear in the Spotlight Comments field at the top of the Get Info windows of the selected Finder items. Typing a particular keyword in Spotlight will bring up a list of all the items tagged with it. Note that "Append to existing comments" option is checked by default - uncheck it to overwrite your previously entered keywords.
MACSOLU I'm astounded that you apparently CANNOT drag a selection of files into the window of BatchSpot'em -- instead, you are forced to manually add each item to a list. The inability to drag a "batch" of files into this program is a serious drawback in terms of ease of use and efficiency.
Please correct me if you find my statement to be erroneous. (Version 1.1)
RORO01 You select the first item and then you shift-click on the last item, thus selecting the whole batch. (Version 1.1)

MACSOLU Umm, your reply is telling me how to select a batch of items in the Finder, which I know how to do. What your reply does not address is that a selection ("batch") of files that are dragged from a Finder window to BatchSpot'em FAILS TO WORK. (Version 1.1)
