QUICKSILVER QUESTION - creating text files within finder
jameskachan | Feb 18 2007
is it possible to use quicksilver to create a text file in the most active window in finder? say i want to include a quick note/read me file in the folder im doing other stuff too. since there is no "PC style right click/add new text file" on mac, is quicksilver able to? it seems like it might because of the create text file command however i can only make it work with a dialog box that makes me then find the dir i want to save it. thanks! 2 Comments

Actually, there is a way to create new text files. Check out the preferance pane NuFile. It's quite handy for creating new files, files from templates, etc. Handy little thing. And I believe it's free. » POSTED IN:
