At 02:53p +0100 07/01/2004, Martin Orpen didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
BTW if you adapt Apple's "encode_script.scpt" to get rid of the <a href>
rubbish, you can automate the link making process using this:
tell application "Safari"
activate
set tinyDoc to make new document
set URL of tinyDoc to "http://tinyurl.com/create.php"
delay 12
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Safari"
tell window 1
key code 48
delay 1
keystroke "v" using {command down}
delay 1
key code 36
end tell
end tell
end tell
Umm, their home page indicates an easier way to create a link.
If you're doing it for a currently viewed Web page, try this:
tell app "Safari"
tell document 1
set URL to "
http://tinyurl.com/create.php?url=" & URL
end tell
end tell
If your URL is on the clipboard, then this should do:
tell app "Safari"
tell document 1
set URL to "
http://tinyurl.com/create.php?url=" & (the clipboard)
end tell
end tell
-boo
PS. What are keycodes 48 and 36? I can't seem to find 'em.
