Just downloaded TextExpander yesterday and coming up with new ways to make it useful. I travel often and always wanting to know what the weather is going to be like in my next destination, so I made the snippet "getweather" that is the AppleScript code below to prompt me for what zip code I will be in, then load that location's weather forecast for tomorrow in Google Chrome.
Fun!
tell application "TextExpander" to activate display dialog "What zip code?" default answer "" set zip to (text returned of result) tell application "Google Chrome" activate set theUrl to "http://www.weather.com/weather/tomorrow/" & zip if (count every window) = 0 then make new window end if set found to false set theTabIndex to -1 repeat with theWindow in every window set theTabIndex to 0 repeat with theTab in every tab of theWindow set theTabIndex to theTabIndex + 1 if theTab's URL = theUrl then set found to true exit end if end repeat if found then exit repeat end if end repeat if found then tell theTab to reload set theWindow's active tab index to theTabIndex set index of theWindow to 1 else tell window 1 to make new tab with properties {URL:theUrl} end if end tellThis content will be shown after all post
