I love Ctrl-clicking on an item or folder in DT, and selecting “Copy Item Link,” thereby copying a link to that item or folder. I then paste said link into, say, a note in OmniOutliner. When I click on that link, the item etc appears. Magic.
So, I’d now like to create such links on my desktop, to items in DT that I’m using frequently and to which I need swift access. Like aliases to my key DT items and folders.
Any suggestions? (Extra credit for a script that would do this!)
Ah, Korm, bless you! Many, many thanks for taking the time and trouble to write this.
One small glitch: When I pasted into the Applescript Editor and tried to save to the DEVONThink Pro scripts folder, I got the error message “Syntax Error: expected expression but found ‘property’”, highlighting “property” in the following line:
set the parent_dictionary to make new property list item with properties

Bonus 2: put these links into a folder and drag the folder into the Dock to get the equivalent of a Dock submenu of frequently-needed documents in your database(s).[ /quote]
Like this a lot, I am wondering/hoping that there is a way to instead of putting the folder in the Dock to put it into the Finder Toolbar?
