You are probable going to have to use Carbon for that, Carbon has four
methods PBDTGetCommentSync, PBDTGetIconAsync, PBDTSetCommentSync and
PBDTAddIconAsync. Good luck, there is a steep learning curve with Carbon
as there is with Cocoa, and it's a real pain having to pick your way
through the mountains of info when you want to do something simple.
Alternatively you might be able to find some command line tool that will
return the comments for you, I briefly looked at GetFileInfo but only
seems to return file type/creator, creation/modification date and some
attribute flags.

I am trying to figure out how I can get a string out of the comments

edit the string and then put it back. Anyone know how I can do this
preferably using Java?
