Hi, I would like to write the name of a textfile .rtf og similar and have the text inside the file copied to the clipboard, not the location of the
file. Is this possible?

Quicksilver could probably do that directly for plain text files (though it can’t today), but for anything more complicated like RTF, you would need an application that understands the format to handle putting the data in the clipboard.

You might be able to accomplish that with an [AppleScript action][1] that opens the file, then “types” ⌘A ⌘C and quits the app. That could be a problem if the app was already running, but there’s probably a way to check that.
