paste into multiple fields with Quicksilver?George Schroder | Dec 19 2007During my normal work day, I do a lot of work in a web-based database application. And for the really repetitive data entry items, I have set up triggers to paste the "canned text" into different fields. But I have yet to figure out how I can paste into multiple fields at once with one trigger. Is this possible? For example: Right now... I manually place my cursor in a field... hit Cmd+Opt+O to paste the first bit of text... hit the [Tab] key on my keyboard... hit Cmd+Opt+P to paste the next bit of text... hit the [Tab] key on my keyboard... hit Cmd+Opt+[ to paste the last bit of text. read more »POSTED IN:

Applescript: using Quicksilver to append to OmniOutliner documentsRichard Flynn | Mar 14 2008I'm hoping that someone can help me. I've done some searching today for this and was surprised not to find very much information about what I'm looking for. We all know that you can use Quicksilver to append to an existing text file (with the .txt suffix). However, I keep a set of lists—my non-systematic ‘stuff’—in a set of OmniOutliner documents. These documents are all stored in one folder. There seems to be no way to use Quicksilver to append a line to an arbitrary OmniOutliner document, as far as I can tell. I've found this page which gives a script to use as a Quicksilver action. That script will append to a .oo3 document whose filename is hard-coded into the script. I would like to be able to define which document to append to from within the Quicksilver interface, in the third argument. read more »POSTED IN:
