Insert org-mode links to items selected in various Mac apps
This code allows you to grab either the current selected items, or the frontmost url in various mac appliations, and insert them as hyperlinks into the current org-mode document at point. This code is heavily based on, and indeed incorporates, org-mac-message.el written by John Wiegley and Christopher Suckling. Detailed comments for each application interface are inlined with the code. Here is a brief overview of how the code interacts with each application: Finder.app - grab links to the selected files in the frontmost window Mail.app - grab links to the selected messages in the message list AddressBook.app - Grab links to the selected addressbook Cards Firefox.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Vimperator/Firefox.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Safari.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Google Chrome.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Brave.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Together.app - Grab links to the selected items in the library list Skim.app - Grab a link to the selected page in the topmost pdf document Microsoft Outlook.app - Grab a link to the selected message in the message list DEVONthink Pro Office.app - Grab a link to the selected DEVONthink item(s); open DEVONthink item by reference Evernote.app - Grab a link to the selected Evernote item(s); open Evernote item by ID qutebrowser.app - Grab the url of the frontmost tab in the frontmost window Installation: Add (require 'org-mac-link) to your `.emacs' or `init.el'. If you are using `use-package' add the following: (use-package org-mac-link :ensure t) Optionally bind a key to activate the link grabber menu, like this: (add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c g") 'org-mac-link-get-link))) Usage: Type C-c g (or whatever key you defined, as above), or type M-x org-mac-link-get-link RET to activate the link grabber. This will present you with a menu to choose an application from which to grab a link to insert at point. You may also type C-g to abort. Customizing: You may customize which applications appear in the grab menu by customizing the group `org-mac-link'. Changes take effect immediately.
