Re: Using Applescript to find an existing yojimbo note...
If it matters, I got the same error as Alan, but I chose to wrap it
with the try/on error/end try block that I was already using.

In my testing here, this causes an error (in Script Debugger) when
no
such item exists.
Just for reference, I tested my version with Yojimbo 1.5 on Mac OS X
10.4.11 using Apple's Script Editor 2.1.1 (AppleScript 1.10.7), and
no
error occurs when an item named by mytitle does not exist. Perhaps it
is a Script Debugger issue?
I should have offered similar clues -- sorry.
I'm using Yojimbo 1.5 on Mac OS X 10.5.1. I get the same error in
Script Editor 2.2 (Applescript 2.0) as I do in Script Debugger 4.0.8.
Yojimbo got an error: Can’t get note item 1 whose name = Friday,
January 18, 2008. Invalid index.
Let's blame Apple, shall we? ;-)
Whatever works!
That's my motto!

Using Applescript to find an existing yojimbo note...
Hey,
I'd like to use Yojimbo to keep a daily work diary. To make it easier,
I'd like to set up an applescript that will create the title of the
diary entry (based on today's date) and either (a) find the entry if
it already exists or (b) create a new entry if it does not.
I've figured out how to create the new entry, but I can't figure out
how to search Yojimbo to see if it already exists. In addition, I'm
not sure how to have Yojimbo select the diary entry and bring it to
the front. Here's what I have:
tell application Yojimbo
set mytags to {QLogic, Diary}
set mytitle to date string of (current date)
try
-- find existing note
set mynote to ???
on error
-- create a new note
set mynote to (make new note item with properties ¬
{name:mytitle, contents:imported on date})
add tags mytags to mynote
end try
activate
-- how do I bring the note to the front?
end tell
Thanks for any help you can give!

Re: Using Yojimbo with Spaces
Awww...

Re: Restricting Spotlight to search only Yojimbo items
I'm also addicted to QuickSilver. Between that, Spaces, Spotlight and Yojimbo, I've so tuned my Mac I tend to get really frustrated when I have to work on a stock model. -- Michael Heinz Phoenixville, Pennsylvania On Dec 5, 2007, at 8:51 PM, Patrick Gilmour wrote: Looks interesting.
