thanks for the short form code, i had been using a longer form and
actually did not know how to go to the short form after realizing it
would be useful too.

for reference and in case anyone wants to use this, the long form
applescript is:

set date_ to (current date) as string
tell application "System Events" to keystroke date_

this will give a result when run in the form of the following:

Sunday, May 25, 2008 5:22:57 PM

also note that i have it installed in the following folder:

/Users/your_username/Library/Scripts/date and time insert.scpt

and that this folder is, by default i think, scanned by QS in the
catalogs in program preferences but make sure you restart quicksilver
or rescan the catalog so that it registers the script.

this has long been a great timesaver for me.
