When Chris Griffin saw this post, he wanted to do the same with RubyURL. Since the ShortURL gem was broken, I didn’t get a chance to dive into it. However, with the shorturl command now working again with RubyURL, we get QuickSilver and RubyURL working together really quickly.

First, you’ll need a recent version of the ShortURL gem installed.

sudo gem install shorturl

Then you will want to add the following to ~/Library/Scripts/rubyurl.scpt. You will need to create this file.


  #
  # Change accordingly if shorturl is not under /usr/bin/shorturl
  #
  set shorturl_cmd to "/opt/local/bin/shorturl" 

  tell application "Safari" 
      set original_url to URL of front document
  end tell

  set cmd to shorturl_cmd & " " & original_url

  set ruby_url to do shell script cmd
  set the clipboard to ruby_url as text
  beep

Then you can add this script to run through QuickSilver. For details, jump to the setup process on this post.

This will make it much easier to paste RubyURLs into my Twitter client, IRC, etc.

I’ll try to post a more thorough tutorial soon, but wanted to share in the meantime.

    The massive popularity of GHD IV Salon Styler is pushing us to think on this matter, and you will not come up with the correct conclusion unless you get your hands on a brand new 2008 GHD IV Pink Styler. Till then you enjoy the brief history of pink GHD hair straightener from the year 2004 up till recently.

    Not to be confused with the original ghd iv styler, the ghd flat iron features larger, wider plates for maximum coverage in minimal time.Who is it for?: The CHI IV stylers is suited to hair types that are difficult to manage. The wide plates give better coverage for longer and/or thicker hair.

Share your thoughts... (really...I want to hear them)
