@m_s: Sure, here is some more detail about how I do it.
I have a folder set up in Documents called (I lied above) “Upload by FTP”.
I created an Automator workflow called “ftp to temp directory”. I have three separate actions in this workflow, in this order:
In Hazel, I added the folder “Upload by FTP” and created this rule:
If Date Last Modified is in the last 5 minutes Do the folowing: Run Automator workflow “ftp to temp”
In iGTD, click “Contexts” and then File-Export to File… I name this “todos”. Choose Export to HTML table, Export All, Save. Then I click “Projects”, File-Export to File… name this “projects” and click “Save”.
Now my projects and tasks-by-context are available where I had FTP’d them.
