Can OS X automate creating a reminders from a page in a web browser?
I enjoy the feature of creating reminders from a web page with one click. similar to how Omnifocus does this.
Can Apple's Reminders do the same by apple scripting or other addition/short cut?
If you want to add a selected text as a reminder
- Open Automator
- Create a new service
- Service receives selected text in any application
- Add a Run ApplScript Action
- Add the following script
- Save it
the script :
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Reminders"
set theReminder to (make new reminder with properties {name:input})
activate
end tell
return input
end run
Now when selecting text, you can with a right clic add it as a reminder. If you want that only in Safari. Replace the any application with Safari at the top of the Automator window.
And if you don't want to show the Application Reminders when adding a new one, just remove the line activate in the script.
