I guess... really it was more of a "Has anyone already invented this
wheel?" question.

Thanks.  I'll give it a shot & report back.  As far as "additional
hacking" goes, I don't know diddly about Applescript except "do shell
script" but who knows, maybe this is the project where I start to
learn something about it.

Yes, but I have no idea how to tell Mail.app:

"Take first line of email body and pipe it to Yojimbo, instructing it
to make it a web archive."


So this is really a "how do I script Apple Mail" question? ;-)

Here's a quick script which should either do what you want, or serve  
as a good starting point for additional hacking. It works off of the  
selected messages in the front message viewer (browser) in Mail.


- Jim

== begin script ==

on run
tell application "Mail"
set zMessageList to selected messages of message viewer 1
repeat with zMsg in zMessageList
my process_message(zMsg)
end repeat
end tell
end run

on process_message(zMsg)
tell application "Mail"
set zName to subject of zMsg
set zURL to my trim_url(content of zMsg)
end tell
if looks_like_url(zURL) then
tell application "Yojimbo"
			make new web archive item with properties {name:zName} with  
contents zURL

end tell
else
display alert "Message body does not look like url."
end if
end process_message

on trim_url(zURL)
set zWhitespace to {space, return, ASCII character 10, tab}
set zStartIndex to 1
set zEndIndex to length of zURL
repeat with i from 1 to zEndIndex
if character i of zURL is not in zWhitespace then
set zStartIndex to i
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
repeat with i from zEndIndex to zStartIndex by -1
if character i of zURL is not in zWhitespace then
set zEndIndex to i
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
return text zStartIndex through zEndIndex of zURL
end trim_url

on looks_like_url(zURL)
set zProtocols to {"http://";, "https://";, "mailto:"}
repeat with zProto in zProtocols
if zURL starts with zProto then
return true
end if
end repeat
return false
end looks_like_url

== end script ==

Yes, but I have no idea how to tell Mail.app:

"Take first line of email body and pipe it to Yojimbo, instructing it
to make it a web archive."

If this was procmail, maybe ;-)

Sounds like you need a rule in Mail.app to run an applescript. It's  
doable, but I'm not sure how.


Years ago, I wrote a script to invoke the say command when certain  
emails were received. If you're interested in it I can post it.

Mail to webarchive?

[TjL]

I'm looking for a way to be able to email my desktop computer from my  
iPhone with an URL in the body of the email and have yojimbo fetch it  
as a webarchive.


Sounds crazy but I wondered if anyone else had aleady done it.
