Multi External Editors

Current version: 01
Built on: Aperture 1.5.3

Tired of Aperture's single external editor limitation? Never thought of it as a limitation? That's OK because I've taken care of things for you.

Simply download this AppleScript and choose it as Aperture's external editor. When you do an Edit with External Editor from within Aperture, this script will run and ask you to choose an application to actually open the image. Simple. No fuss, no muss.
