Resurrecting this old thread as it got lost in my inbox (sigh). This latest script from Chris Stone (thanks Chris!) does 90% of what I’m looking for but since I’m an Applescript idiot, I’m looking for a little more assistance:
1. How can this script be modified to enclose the URLs with “<“ and “>” so that they are markdown links? 2. How can this script be modified to work for items selected in Finder or in Path Finder? For reference, I saved a version of this script as an application and then assigned it a keyboard shortcut via Keyboard Maestro (which brings up another stupid question which is how to find all unused keyboard shortcuts?).
