You might make use of the Save Command to File action. See the "Command Objects and Droplets" section of the manual for creating a command object. http://mysite.verizon.net/hmelman/Quicksilver.pdf

The Save Command to File… action takes a command object and saves it in a file. You enter the file name as the argument and Quicksilver saves it with the extension .qscommand. If you open the resulting file (e.g., by double-clicking it), it will run the command. Quicksilver makes running commands simple and triggers make running command even easier. But for commands that you might run a few times but not enough to bother creating a trigger for, the Save Command to File… action can be useful. E.g., if your working on creating a document and you want to send several drafts to a group of people (using the comma trick) it’s easy to save this (complicated) command in a file to rerun.

I want to set up a crontab entry that uses QuickSilver to display an

I'm sure I could set up a custom QuickSilver trigger, but that seems
brittle.  Is it possible to use the "qs" command-line plugin to send
data to more than just the subject pane, and to use text mode?  I've
tried things like

qs ".Go Stretch!" "Large text"

but no dice.
