Search Highlighted Text in Evernote

During today’s Evernote Podcast, there were a couple of items mentioned which I realized might be of interest to readers here:

Search in Evernote — Updated Snow Leopard Service

The new “Simultaneous Search” function within the Chrome browser extension which was mentioned made me realize something: New Veritrope.com readers might not know that we’ve had something similar around here for a while! While it’s not an integrated Google search, it is a very handy way to find out whether or not you’ve already got notes about something. And best of all — it works in many different applications!

Yes — I’ve updated the Snow Leopard Service which searches Evernote for highlighted text. The new version uses Evernote’s enhanced AppleScript support and is faster than ever, so be sure to check it out!

Two fun script projects that I’m calling “The Idea Roll” and the “Vocabulary Builder” which take advantage of Evernote’s new AppleScript Append function — and also showcase some fun things you can do with HTML and Evernote to create your own document templates.

Hello Everyone!

Idea Capture

As way to say “Welcome to Veritrope.com!” to my many new readers today from the Evernote Blog, I thought I’d publish two fun little script projects that I’m calling “The Idea Scroll” and the “Vocabulary Builder”.

Each of these scripts takes advantage of a new addition to Evernote’s scripting vocabulary — an Append function! They also both showcase some fun things you can do with HTML and Evernote to create your own document templates. (This is something we’ll explore more in later projects)

They’re pretty similar to each other — and that’s a bit by design. I want to make a point about how easy it is to adapt some code quickly to fit your own needs… so let’s dive in!

Teaching An Old AppleScript Some New Tricks!


Here’s a quick bit of Script-fu for all you Evernote users:

A user calling him/herself “gatekeeper” (probably a guy, but you can never rule out the possibility of a Sigourney Weaver / Ghostbusters variety of Gatekeeper) posted a message on the Evernote forum asking if there was “a way to generate in to a text file only the urls from all my snaps ?”

I can see how this could be useful in certain circumstances — especially for those people who use Evernote as a sort of private delicious.com substitute (in other words, as a sort of anti-social bookmarking service).

I had published a script here a while back that saved a list of Note Titles as a text file…
Could that be easily adapted to do the job here?
(Spoiler Alert: Yes, it can.)
