Quicksilver Compound Commands with Delays
I been using quicksilver for a while and it's a great tool. One thing that disappointed me was that when building triggers I could figure out how to couple several commands together. I found this article which does a great explanation of it.
You need advanced features enabled etc. I won't re-explain what the previous author did a great job of explaining, but I will explain how to overcome one limitation they mentioned.
How do I order and add delays between commands ?
-Enable the Terminal Commands module
-For the sake of a simple illustration I'm going to use large type commands. Create and save 2 large type commands using the encapsulate [^+Enter] and save commands.
-Enter the following:
.sleep 5 [tab]
run command in shell [enter]
[^+Enter] (to encapsulate command)
Save command to file [enter]
Let's try it out. Use the comma trick to group your 3 commands together and then choose to run. Neet - delay.
Extending the concepts
-you can use the comma trick to build triggers with multiple commands coupled together.
-you can change the delay between commands by modifying the number after sleep.
-you can couple as many commands together as you want using this technique, adding delays when required.
