macOS Quick Action

PPRC includes a Finder Quick Action that lets you right-click any folder of raw files and select "Process with PPRC", no terminal needed.

Install

pprc --install-quick-action

This generates and installs an Automator workflow to ~/Library/Services/. A Terminal window will open showing PPRC's progress when you use the action.

Enable in Finder

After installing, you may need to enable the extension in System Settings:

macOS Sequoia (15+)

System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions → Extensions → Finder

macOS Ventura / Sonoma (13–14)

System Settings → Privacy & Security → Extensions → Finder

macOS Monterey and older

System Preferences → Extensions → Finder

Usage

  1. Right-click a folder containing .raw files in Finder
  2. Select Quick Actions → Process with PPRC
  3. A Terminal window opens showing progress
  4. Processed TIFFs appear in the output directory

Uninstall

pprc --uninstall-quick-action

How it works

The Quick Action is an Automator .workflow bundle that runs a shell script. It opens Terminal and sources your shell profile so that the pprc command is available without hardcoded paths. Your global config settings are respected automatically.
