In October last year a poster in the macOSXHints forums wrote an AppleScript that backs up selected document and text folders from your Home directory into a zip file and then emails them via Apple Mail to your Gmail account.

Subsequent posters in the thread got all inventive and modified the script in interesting ways.

Then another user posted an AppleScript droplet called “GDrive” which will email any file you drop on it to your Gmail account.

The thread has clocked up over 16,000 views, so perhaps you have read it already. If not, check it out.
