(* OopsieFocus A script to launch OmniFocus and activate the Quick Entry Panel By Shawn Blanc (http://shawnblanc.net) May 20, 2011 With code used from the Toggle Twitter script by Red Sweater Software: http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/1646/toggle-twitter Works great with FastScripts or Keyboard Maestro: http://www.red-sweater.com/fastscripts/ http://www.keyboardmaestro.com/main/ How it works: Set this script to run using the same keyboard shortut that you use to launch the Quick Entry Panel in OmniFocus. If you ever try to activate the Quick Entry Panel but OmniFocus happens to not be running, then this script will launch OmniFocus and bring up the Quick Entry Panel for you. *) set GTDAppName to "OmniFocus" global GTDAppName set GTDAppToUse to FindRunningGTDApp() if (GTDAppToUse is null) then set GTDAppToUse to "OmniFocus" end if -- Is OmniFocus running? on AppIsRunning(GTDAppName) tell application "System Events" return (count of (application processes whose name is GTDAppName)) is not 0 end tell end AppIsRunning -- If OmniFocus is running, do nothing. -- If OmniFocus is not running, launch it and bring up the Quick Entry Panel. on FindRunningGTDApp() if AppIsRunning(GTDAppName) then null else tell application "OmniFocus" activate tell quick entry open make new inbox task tell application "System Events" to keystroke tab end tell end tell end if return null end FindRunningGTDApp
