Documentation for Benjamin Harley's Make iCal Quicksilver Action

The commands can be entered in any order and they are:

t-- [title of to-do]
e-- [title of event] (use t-- or e-- to determine whether the script will create a to-do or an event. The default is a to-do. So if you just type some text (without t--) it will come out as a to-do)

d-- [start date (or due date for to-dos) in m/d/y format (or whatever your system is set to). The default is today for events (in 3 days for to-dos), +n to set that many days from today], [hour in hh:mm format, 24hr clock], [end date in m/d/y format, or +n for number of days if it is an all day event, default is same as start date], [end hour in hh:mm format, +n is number of hours from start date, default is +1], [a for an all-day event].

a-- [set an alarm (default for events is -1 hour, for to-dos 10 am on due date)

n-- [to add to notes section]

l-- [location]

c-- [calendar - default is home]

p-- [priority n,l,m,h (for to-dos only)]

u-- [URL reference]

cb--[copy contents of clipboard to notes section - will always come after the text in the n-- section]

s-- or show-- [show the event or to-do in iCal after creation so you can check and see if it is right]

Examples

'do this d-- a-- c--Work cb-- s-- p--h' will create a to-do with title "do this", with the clipboard copied to the notes, with a due date in 3 days, an alarm at 10 am and in the calendar named "Work" (if it exists, otherwise in the default which is "Home'), with a high priority and open iCal and show this to-do as soon as it has been created

'e-- meet someone l--someone's house n-- the directions a--2 d-- +2 17:00 +2' will create an event  "meet someone" two days from now starting at 5 pm and lasting for 2 hours with an alarm 2 hours before hand with a location "someone's house" with "the directions" in the notes.
