Zwei praktische iCal Tastenkürzel, die man leider in der Systemsteuerung selbst anlegen muss.

In der Kalenderliste kann man übrigens per Pfeiltasten oder Anfangsbuchstaben navigieren und mit der Leertaste Kalender aktiveren/deaktivieren.

In Things habe ich oft die URLs von E-Mails auf Apple Mail in die Notizen eintragen lassen um schnell Zugriff auf die entsprechende Mail zu bekommen. Mit iCal kann man ähnliches tun allerdings muss man sich das Kopieren der Mail-URL in die Zwischenablage selbst bauen oder Drag’n'Drop nutzen.

Hier mal kurz die verschiedenen Lösungswege, die man nutzen kann.

1. Drag’n'Drop

Der Film zeigt das erstellen per Drag’n'Drop und auch generell die Funktionsweise.

2. Kopieren über AppleScript

Hier schon mal das benötigte AppleScript:

tell application "Mail"
    set _sel to get selection
    set _links to {}
    repeat with _msg in _sel
        set _messageURL to "message://%3c" & _msg's message id & "%3e"
        set end of _links to _messageURL
    end repeat
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to return
    set the clipboard to (_links as string)
end tell

Diese könnt ihr nun entweder wie ich zum Beispiel in Keyboard Maestro nutzen oder daraus einen OS X-Dienst erstellen mit Automator. Den Dienst könnt ihr dann unter Dienste im Menü aufrufen oder ihr vergebt in der Systemsteuerung ein Tastenkürzel dafür.

Hier für beides die Screenshots.

TV2iCal is a collection of scripts to schedule recordings in iTele with the help of iCal and TV-Browser. It was developed to make use of the great iCal interface for managing scheduled recordings. It goes beyond what iTeleRecord does.

The iCal-iTele integration can also be used without TV-Browser. Just try importing your existing scheduled recordings from iTele, modify them, add new ones and write them back.

Warning: The iCal2iTele script replaces all iTele recordings. Be sure to use iTele2iCal first if you have used iTele itself to schedule recordings perviously.

• TV-Browser < = Version 1.0 (http://www.tv-browser.org)
• • CapturePlugin (http://www.tv-browser.org/plugins.php)
• Apple iCal (tested with 1.5.5 and 2.0, may work with previous and later versions)
