I'm trying to use terminal and the xattr to modify an extended metadata entry.

It looks simple, but I don't have any success. Currently I tried something like below:

xattr -w com.apple.metadata:kMDItemDisplayName 'fileName.localized' 'somePath.localized'

I returns no error, but nothing is changed.

Can somebody shed some light on this?

Thanks Andreas
