If you can live without the full power of a life-project such as exiftool you could check out the package fpexif
I don't know OS X that well, but you could try<s>
Thanks gents. Hopefully the 2nd works, but I'll try fpexif out of curiousity as well. If it meets the need, will likely be faster IAC.
2nd works on OS X - tests as follows (once I noticed the lack of a blank after "exiftool" ... that was a test, right?)
Program TestCommand; uses process;
var finame,s:string;
readdata: ansistring;
R:boolean;
BEGIN
finame := '"/Volumes/Enola/Phots/M-2022-11-17/Airport-002.jpg"';
S := 'exiftool ' + finame;
writeln(S);
r := runcommand('/bin/sh',['-c',s],readdata);
if r then Writeln(readdata);
END.
I'll try the 1st suggestion { wp } when I get a chance.
Thanks!
