i've got a sick little ruby script that allows you to make reminders from the command line like so:
$ echo 'party up this friday at 9' | make_reminder.rb (it uses chronic <https://github.com/mojombo/chronic/> to set the due date and rb-appscript <http://appscript.sourceforge.net/rb-appscript/> to create the reminder). i'd like to be able to open the bezel, type "." to enable text entry, and enter the event text ("party up this friday at 9" in this case), and have a 'create reminder' action show up in the right-hand pane. the 'create reminder' action would essentially pass the text of the left-hand pane into stdin of `make_reminder.rb`. how can i do this? i know that i can create a service for all apps in automator which does this (passes the selected text into my `make_reminder.rb` script), and that works, but i can't get the service to show up in my actions (even though i can see it when i go to Quicksilver -> Preferences -> Preferences -> Actions -> Filter by Plugin -> Services Menu Plugin). how can i use the text-entry-mode text as input for my `make_reminder.rb` script? thanks!!! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
