For example, to add the comment `my picture` to `pic.jpg`, go to the images directory (where `pic.jpg` is), and type:
        bins_edit -d "my picture" pic.jpg
The `-d` option stands for description. You can set other fields, like location or date. Run bins_edit --help to see all fields available and read the bins_edit(1) man page. The description text can be HTML with the `--html` switch. You can run bins_edit on several images, for example:
        $ bins_edit -l "Paris" -y "2001" *.jpg
For each album (and sub-albums), you can also set a title, a description and a sample image to be used as a thumbnail to represent the album. To do so, you can use bins_edit with the`--album` switch. Type bins_edit --help for more details. After setting or changing any fields, you have to rerun bins to generate new HTML pages.
