Answers
- What do the circles in the icon
represent?
The icon is a Venn diagram. The largest circle represents an iPhoto® library. Each of the other circles represents a list of photos in the library which are assigned a particular keyword. The areas where circles overlap represent photos that are assigned keywords associated with the overlapping circles.

How can I automate Picme?
Use a method that creates a file called tempexc.txt in your user domain-->Library-->Application Support-->Picme folder. The first line in the file should be the name of the keyword list that Picme should use, and the second line should be the POSIX path of the destination for the photo copies.Here is a sample Applescript that, when placed in the System-->Library-->Scripts-->Folder Action Scripts folder and enabled for the Volumes folder (which Finder will open if you type "open /Volumes" in Terminal), causes Picme to use a keyword list (todaysList) with the same name as the current day of the week when a mobile phone called "my cell" is attached with a USB cable:
property deviceName: "my cell" on adding folder items to thisFolder after receiving addedItems set volList to do shell script "diskutil list" sep libPath to path to library folder from user domain as string if volList contains deviceName then set todaysList to do shell script "date +%A" as string set tempexecfile to (libPath & "Application Support:Picme:tempexc.txt") set open_file to ¬ open for access tempexecfile with write permission set eof of open_file to 0 --next two lines intentionally on separate lines write todaysList & " /Volumes/" & deviceName & "/Images/Picme" to open_file starting at eof close access open_file tell application "Picme" to activate end if end adding folder items to
