Thanks for that, Rob. You gave me two good hints in one post. I'd call that economy of scale :-)
open "somethingsomething.qscommand" Works just fine. No need for an "open -a" So, I created a droplet that basically opened /Users/petonic/bin/qslargetext.xt and displayed the contents of that file in large type. Now I just need to cat into that fixed file and then launch ~/bin/showlargetext.qscommand and I've got a dynamic large type engine. Just like you suggested, I could use Applescript for large type but this is easier to repeat for disparate use-cases. I'm switching between AS, Karabiner-XML, Python, HTML, CSS -- yet another grammar. No, not even worried about file locking, etc :-) I'd forgotten about the Droplet capability, and I'm now going to use it for this new workflow: * Rename the "current document" (proxy) * Move new document to ~/Documents/maps/images" * Get file-url of that document in its new location (i.e., "file:///Users/petonic/Documents/maps/images/2016-11-07-new-gpio-headers.pdf") and store it into the clipboard This is useful for me to use for Freeplane mindmap hyperlinks, OmniFocus links within notes (once they file the "file:///" bug, which they promised to do), etc. Thanks again, Rob! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
