Template for Writing Quicksilver Actions in AppleScript
Tags:
Bottom Line: Quicksilver v1.0 has some new options for writing AppleScript actions, so I made a quick template that I thought I’d share.
Anyone that frequents n8henrie.com will know that I love Quicksilver. Recently, Quicksilver finally became a 1.0 release, and with that update came some changes to its ability to use custom AppleScript actions. There is a great overview of writing custom AppleScript actions at the official site, so I used it to write a template script. I’ve found custom QS actions to be fairly simple to write and incredibly useful, so I figured a template for the enhanced AppleScript support would be a reasonable thing to have around.
Here’s what I came up with so far. Enjoy, and if you have suggestions or clarifications, let me know in the comments section below.
Update: The official Quicksilver site has added several other templates in a great page you can check out here. —n8henrie Sun Apr 7 10:15:18 MDT 2013
