This it the eventual solution: https://github.com/quicksilver/Quicksilver/issues/115 In the meantime, there’s an AppleScript solution that sort of works. Save the following AppleScript to `~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions/Quick Look.scpt` and restart Quicksilver to use it. on open of theFile set thePath to quoted form of POSIX path of theFile do shell script "/usr/bin/qlmanage -p " & thePath tell application Quicksilver to hide end open -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/>
