AppleScript - generating an Album from a list of Version Names
This script will make a new Album in Aperture and add Versions to it if they match the names in a text file.
Preparation:
1. Copy your file names into a text file, with one name per line.
2. REMOVE any file extensions - the text on each line must match the Version Name in Aperture.
3. Save the text file - as a plain text file, not RTF or anything like that.
When you run the script it should make a new Album at the top level of the Library and add any Versions it can find which match the names on each line of the text file. If there are multiple Versions with the same name in your Library, only the first one will be added to the Album.
