[MlMt] How can I set the width of an included image? (was wrongly: Plist confusion: How can I convert my binary plist files into the current default JSON-like format?)

I use a Retrobatch "app" for that, triggered from a keyboard shortcut 
(FastScripts)

Simple, very quick and easy.

Before Retrobatch, I had an AppleScript that drove Acorn.

MailMate, Acorn, Retrobatch: three great indie apps I happily support.
