Vero Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Is there a way to open an URL like this 'http://somesite.com/{clipboard}'? Yes, you can create a super simple workflow to do this. In a new blank workflow, add a hotkey object. Set your hotkey, set action to "Pass through to workflow" and the Argument to "OS X Clipboard contents". Then add an Open URL object, and type in http://somesite.com/{query} Connect the two together and you're done! Now when you hit your hotkey, the site will launch with your clipboard content as the {query] Link to comment
edalzell Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Is there a way to do it w/o the hotkey? I never remember all the hotkeys I have set up! Link to comment
jdfwarrior Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Is there a way to do it w/o the hotkey? I never remember all the hotkeys I have set up! You could also do it with a keyword that attaches to a Run Script. Set the Run Script to grab the value in the clipboard using pbpaste and then "open" the url with the variable in place. Does that make sense? Link to comment
