Hacking Yojimbo bookmarklets for flags
Yojimbo’s new boomarklets for archiving and bookmarking web pages are great. But you will have noticed that they don’t flag new items for your attention. A solution is not far away.
As Jim heIpfully pointed out in the comments to an earlier post on Yojimbo 1.2, you can add flags to new items by gently hacking the code of the javascript.
All you need to do is add
- Open the bookmarks manager in your browser.
- Find the bookmarklets that came with Yojimbo 1.2, probably in your bookmarks bar or toolbar folder.
- In Safari, click once on the address field to select it and carefully type in the extra code.
I’ve highlighted in the following screenshots what works for me, (i) for the archive script:

And (ii) for the bookmark script:

Does anyone know a way to use these bookmarklets in NetNewsWire?

You can’t go past Fraser Speirs’ most excellent NNW to Yojimbo AppleScript
.
That’s what I would use. Actually, it’s what I do use.

I disagree! First you have to switch back to headlines to use it, and then it only archives. I want to be able to archive or bookmark, from NNW’s browser window.
