Somewhere, some time, I found online some kind of script that allowed ebook covers, particularly .mobi files, to appear as icon 'previews' in Mac OSX's finder. Otherwise, if you used something like 'cover flow', all you got was a row of those little blue boxes.

It was a script knocked together by someone or else in answer to someone else's question, and I'm ninety per cent sure it was posted here at Mobileread. I'm damned if I can find it here, or anywhere else. Anyone know of this?
