Bookmark and xattrs

The final group of information provided in the document window contains the Bookmark, and a listing of extended attributes.

The lowest boxes provide a Base-64-encoded representation of a macOS Bookmark to the file, which is intended for use with the Bookmark Resolver window, and other apps which might accept such Bookmark data. Simply select the whole Bookmark and copy it from there.

That is followed by the conventional path contained in the Bookmark, which should be the same as the path seen in the Finder and given at the top of the window. The final box lists the extended attributes (xattrs) found for the file. If you want to work with those, you should use my specialist tool xattred . Change the size of the text used in the Extended Attributes between 4 and 24 points, with the ⌘ + keys to enlarge it, and the ⌘ – keys to reduce it.

The Save command in the File menu lets you write all the information contained in these text boxes to the text file of your choice.
