I think you can use Folder Actions for that (http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/01/30/folder-actions-for-os-x-explained-with-real-world-examples). This one (http://mac.wareseeker.com/Utilities/sync-folders-action-1.0.zip/d63f52c4c) probably does the trick.

Cheers,

Hans

Subject: Display results in window

Hello,

I'm trying to create a service, to lookup font family and font name. What I want to do is to mark a text, then from the context menu select "Show Font". What I have done is:

1. Select service receives marked text in all programs.

2. Get selected Font Book typefaces

3. Get information about typeface

4. Show result

This works, but show result only shows results inside automator. I would like the result to be presented in a regular window.
Is this possible with Automator? Or are some 3rd party plugin available to make it possible?

Regards
