FWIW I use BigCat: <http://ranchero.com/bigcat/> to invoke AppleScripts/shell scripts from the contextual menu. Here's info on writing scripts to work from BigCat: <http://ranchero.com/bigcat/writingscripts.php> and here's a bog-simple shell script that tells BBEdit to create a new file named "Notes.txt" within the folder where you invoke the script: ==== #!/bin/sh bbedit -c $*/Notes.txt === To install this script, just save it out as a file to: ~/Library/Application Support/Big Cat Scripts/Files/ and set it to have execute permission (either via the command line or a utility like Super Get Info. To use, just select a folder and invoke the script, or invoke it within a folder with no files selected. Feel free to season to taste with any refinements you wish. :-) Regards, Patrick Woolsey == Bare Bones Software, Inc. <http://www.barebones.com> P.O.
