OK, here's how to set it up.

Open Automator which will give you an Untitled window.
Choose Finder in the Applications list on the left, then the top item
in the next column should be "Get Selected Finder Items" - drag this
into the panel on the right.
Choose Automator in the Applications list.
Drag "Run Shell Script" into the panel.
Change the "Pass input:" popup menu to say "as arguments"
Leave the "Shell:" popup as is.
Change the text to: touch "$@"
Choose "Save as plugin.." from the File menu.
Make sure Finder is the selected application, name your automator and
click Save.
When you right-click or copntrol-click on a file, you will see an
Automator item near the bottom of the contextual menu. It will have
your Touch script as a sub-menu item.

When your Rev app has been built, select it and choose this item. You
may see some progress indicators in the menu bar. When they have
finished, de-select and re-select the app and your icon will be
showing.

BTW, this will only work if you have set up the icon to use in the
standalone settings.

Cheers,
Sarah
