To do so, put the following shell script in the file `.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/BINS` (or `.gnome/nautilus-scripts/BINS` if you're using gnome 1.x) :
    #!/bin/sh
    #
    # Script to edit BINS xml description files from Nautilus.

    quoted=$(echo -e "$NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_FILE_PATHS" | \
        awk 'BEGIN { FS = "\n" } { printf "\"%s\" ", $1 }' | \
        sed -e s#\"\"##)

    eval "bins-edit-gui $quoted"
Then, make the script executable by going in the file's directory and running the following command :
        chmod u+rx BINS
By putting that shell script there, you can use Nautilus to select all images you want to edit/add info about and then right click, `scripts...` and then `BINS`. It will then launch the gui with all the files selected, as loaded. Thanks to Zaheer Merali for this tip and to Marcus Crafter for the script.
