LaunchBar Import
Summary: Import text, URLs, or files into EagleFiler.
Requires: EagleFiler, LaunchBar
Install Location: ~/Library/Scripts/LaunchBar/
Description
Save the compiled script as Send to EagleFiler.scpt.
To import text or a URL, begin typing “Send to EagleFiler” to select the script in LaunchBar. Press Space, type your text, and press Return. EagleFiler will create a new rich text file with that text. (If you prefer that EagleFiler create a plain text file, you can edit the script to say import plain text instead of import text.)
To import a file, select the file in LaunchBar, press Tab, begin typing “Send to EagleFiler,” and then press Return.
Set _promptsForTags to false instead of true if you don’t want it to ask you for the tags.
