Oh, thanks. Yeah, I was just learning on Wikipedia what apps support XMP:

Skim doesn't support XMP. According to Adobe, Adobe Reader does support it, but even so, I found no way to display XMP in Adobe Reader. I let ownership of Acrobat lapse a year or two ago (and won't buy it again just for this). Just installed ExifTool, but I'm not very good with command line applications.
