Ok, just created issue #1834 https://github.com/quicksilver/Quicksilver/issues/1834 which outlines this in a bit more detail.

I, for one, am using a AppleScript files as simple wrappers for a lot of shell scripts just so I can use them as QS objects/actions easily. I would love to maintain them as *what they really are* (shell scripts) instead. Part of the pain for that also involves $PATH, and figuring out how to move around stdin/stdout/stderr. »Lucas Garron On Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 7:29 PM, Patrick Robertson <[email protected]> wrote: That sounds like a really good idea, and not too difficult I don’t think. Perhaps a v2.0 feature. Could you please create an issue on GH referencing this topic, and including the major points? We’d still need someone to review and manage any AS plugins that are sent, but my idea is that any submissions could just be sent straight to the QS Dev group for review/discussion.

I think as is scripts are very under utilized because as everyone is saying they aren’t centralized so its difficult to find them, install them, and update them. QS already has an *awesome* plugin system that handles updates, version dependency, etc. so if we can just bundle scripts into pseudo plugins or perhaps create their own format that would significantly increase their adoption and creation. Long term it would also be cool to add a simple script creator right into the pref pane which would just take a name, description, and code. Thoughts?

I'd like to volunteer for this, either managing it or helping out with it. I'd probably need a bit of advice about GitHub from time to time, and I tend to contribute in spurts. :) It'd also be a good way to host AppleScripts in blog posts and tweets.

GitHub might still be a little too ‘advanced’ for your layman, but it’s probably a good place to start for storing them all in one place. Perhaps ideally we could have an email address for submitting Applescript Actions, and then have one person manage a dedicated portion of the website, similar to what say… Alfred have.

Since a lot of them are of interest to many people without modification, it makes sense to share them. »Lucas Garron On Sun, Apr 27, 2014 at 12:01 PM, David Rees <[email protected]> wrote: It occurs to me it might be better if the example AppleScripts were in github rather than the wiki. That way folks can submit tweaks easily (and they are easy to sync). And we would just have links in the wiki. I've thought about just putting mine in my own repository, but a shared one would probably be better. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
