Well, if you are a user of Quicksilver and Accordance, you'll love these. If you don't yet use Quicksilver, this may convince you. Essentially, this bundle of Quicksilver Actions enables you to do things like pull the selected scripture reference from a document and have QS paste the text into your front document, or otherwise process it. The actions also allow you to use any text and display a search for it in any Accordance tool of your liking.
What's that? You're reading a PDF or a web page about the proximity of Shechem to a mountain pass? Just highlight shechem and in 5 or so keystrokes you can have Accordance to the front, displaying Shechem in a Map window. I'm not kidding you.
Or, want to quickly, insert the text of Psalm 20 into your current document. It's a all right at your fingertips, and true to the beauty of Quicksilver, never taking your fingers off the keyboard. Such a workflow becomes pure muscle memory.
The Quicksilver Actions are now a part of the whole Accordance Script Library. You can download it in the downloads section.

Brilliant!! I have been using QS for 3-4 months now and it is indispensible! Can't wait to try out the Accordance scripts! Glad I found your blog.
ReplyDeleteWell done, mate. Very helpful – bringing together two of my favourite loves.
ReplyDeleteBeen using it like mad. THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteI'm not at all sure, but I think that every time I use the paste from GNT script, it buggers up my Greek font and I have to run Font Fixer. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteHi Daniel,
ReplyDeleteThat's not really a possibility. All the script is doing is automating a Command-C copy command and a Command-V paste command at the most. It never does anything with the fonts or whatnot.
Have been using your quicksilver actions for Accordance with pleasure for the past few months. They're really fantastic.
ReplyDeleteIn the past week or so, though, I've started having problems pasting Hebrew text into MSWord. Not TextEdit or WriteRoom, just Word. Hebrew text gets reversed once pasted into a Word doc. Individual words remain as they should be, but the order of the words is reversed. It's really very strange. The only thing I can think of is that there was an update to Quicksilver a week or two ago...could this have broken something? Any advice about how I might fix it?
It's a sign of how indispensable your scripts have become for me that I'm really at a loss now that they're broken. Any advice you've got would be very gratefully received.
Oligo,
ReplyDeleteWhat are your Copy settings for Hebrew in the Accordance preferences? The Quicksilver actions use those settings. Are you working with Unicode characters? Cause don't forget that Word for Mac does not do Right-to-Left Unicode Hebrew. In fact, the problem you're describing, word order correct but characters within words are juxtaposed, sounds like what happens when pasting Unicode R-t-L Hebrew into Word for Mac.
Hi there- I just recently stumbled across your actions in the Accordance forums, and first off I want to say thank you! I just had a quick question- in the Accordance display action, if I type something like John 1:1-5, I only get two lines, cutting out in the middle of verse 3. The strange thing is if I enter John 1:1ff I get a much longer display (around v. 12). Do you know why that would be? I run 10.3.9 and Quicksilver B36.
ReplyDeleteThanks for any help!
Greg
Greg,
ReplyDeleteIt tests correctly for me. What module is your first module (ie. the one the action is using?).
Are you getting the same amount of text for John 1:1-5 and Rev. 3:10-15 and others ? Feel free to email me with follow up.
Really great idea that you wrote about QS. Me myself feel more comfortable using QS as a shortcut to everything in my mac..

It would be awesome to have a quicksilver verse insertion trigger for Macsword. Macsword has verse insertion, but it only works in Cocoa apps. I want one for Neooffice, but I can't figure it out.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. Thx
ReplyDeleteSomehow Accordance Verses.scpt doesn't work. I use the latest version of Accordance with Mac 10.5.5
ReplyDeleteAny help out there? The other scripts are working fine ...
A quick hint: ctrl+⌘+backspace makes looking up scriptures sooo fast. It works with every given document.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to switch over to Launchbar for reliabilty. Could you send me the stuff you've made for it?
ReplyDeleteNow I could make your skripts here work for Launchbar. Drop me a line on our blog if you are interessted.
ReplyDeletePosted my version for LaunchBar in the Accordance Forum. Thanks for helping with the german book names

Is there any chance these QS actions could be updated to work with Accordance 9? I can't seem to get them to work since upgrading to Accordance 9.
