Stephen_C Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 It would, at least so far as I'm concerned, be useful to have a new Automation Task that is effectively the reverse of the current Expand Tilde in Path. In other words, to take something like /Users/fred/Documents and to output ~/Documents. Why? Because sometimes in a workflow that is dealing with a long path you need to output some notification where it's rather more elegant to abbreviate the path. Yes, I know I can do that with shell and sed but an Automation Task would be simpler because all you'd need to do would be to add the appropriate variable to the task. Stephen Link to comment
