About

Heiko's Little Helpers are a bunch of AppleScripts I wrote to do frequently needed jobs for me...
Originally I programmed an application named Sake to do that, but it became more complex than I anticipated...that's why I decided to discontinue Sake and switch to FastScripts.

What?

There are some things I often to by hand - this really bothered me. Therefore I sought a way to do this more efficiently.

System Requirements

Setup and usage

  • Setup
    • Install FastScripts
    • Download this scripts (link below), unpack and move them either into...
      • ~/Library/Scripts (usable for your own user only)
      • /Library/Scripts (usable for all users of your Mac)
  • Usage
    Example: Archive this!
    • Select the files you want to archive, in this case "Miscellaneous Scripts", and select Archive this! in FastScripts menu...

    • ...and you get this:

What it can do for you!

Script Function
Paste Timestamp.scpt Pastes a timestamp like "2009-12-22 16:29" into the current text editor.
Paste iTunes Track.scpt Pastes the current iTunes track like this: "The Beez - Die Warteschleife - Die Warteschleife (Radio Edit)".
Paste Log Timestamp.scpt Pastes timestamp like this: "2009-12-22, 16:32, hk: ". This is my favourite. I don't remember what it was like before I used this!
Archive this!.scpt You'll gonna love this: Creates an archive from your selected file/folder and adds an timestamp to the filename. That's sooo handy for my source backups.
Leo this!.scpt Looks up selected text in http://www.leo.org .
Look Up In Dictionary.scpt Looks up selected text in MacOS X's Dictionary.
