Image::ExifTool::WritePhotoshop.pl - Write Photoshop IRB meta information

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

This file is autoloaded by Image::ExifTool::Photoshop.

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

This file contains routines to write Photoshop metadata.

# [NOTES](#NOTES)

Photoshop IRB blocks may have an associated resource name. By default, the existing name is preserved when rewriting a resource, and an empty name is used when creating a new resource. However, a different resource name may be specified by defining a "SetResourceName" entry in the tag information hash. With this defined, a new resource name may be appended to the value in the form "VALUE/#NAME#/" (the slashes and hashes are literal). If "SetResourceName" is anything other than '1', the value is used as a default resource name, and applied if no appended name is provided.
