Being a test post of a new AppleScript to create a blog post from the clipboard.
Working from the Photos to Tinderbox AppleScript, I made one to take the contents of the clipboard and create a new note in the marmot.
This isn't much of a breakthrough for me with regard to Tinderbox, but it does save me a couple of steps if I want to create a post from something I read.
Invoking the script from the Scripts menu, it prompts me for a title for the note (post), and then creates the note and pastes the contents of the clipboard into the $Text of the note. Then I have to write whatever it is I think about that.
This went remarkably smoothly. I have some more ideas, but I'm going to just savor this one for a little bit.
Ideally, it'd capture the application and document file link or URL and populate relevant attributes. Maybe tomorrow...
