The ultimate Quicksilver Thread
stangster | Nov 11 2005
Let's make this the The ultimate Quicksilver Thread. But I really think a own Category would suit our needs alittle bit better. Merlin? Is this Board supporting Subcategories? Let's start with Websearches through QS: I don't get why i have to select the search action before I can use the variable input field? It's just confusing. My Question is: how can I arrange the various search Targets like I can arrange e.g. the Mail actions? 30 Comments

I'm finally getting around to attempting an append. Nope, it's much, much cooler than that! You do have to have the "text manipulation" plug-in installed, I believe. Invoke QS by control-space (or whatever you use) Type "." to get into text input mode Type your text Hit Select "Append To..." Hit Type whatever you need to to select the destination file, and hit return. As Emeril would say, "Bam!" your text is now appended to that file. As a bonus, if you invoke QS again, whatever you typed the last time is sitting there waiting for you to edit and use elsewhere, or as a shell command, applescript, etc. Lots of good stuff in that module! A general warning: use QS for a few days, and you'll feel hopelessly lost when you have to use a machine that doesn't have it! I only use the tiniest fraction of QS's power, I'm sure, having never really sat down and done much exploration, but I dread the time I need to spend on my 10.2 machine because QS isn't lurking in the background ready to do my bidding. » POSTED IN:
