MACRO: Log It, v5.2—Quickly Save Plain Text Snippets to One or More Log Files

@Tomas

Many, many thanks for version 3 - this is great!

You're welcome, @Tomas.

• Is there a way to have two versions of the macro with different "Starts With" entries? I tried duplicating the macro, giving the 2nd one a different "Start With" type, and a different hot key, but it seems that the Start Type change will also change the 1st version of the macro.
• If wanted to change the Start With browser from Safari to say Firefox, is all I have to do is change every instance of "Safari" in the macro to "Firefox"?

Note that SafariURL and SafariTitle are Keyboard Maestro Tokens. There are no corresponding tokens for Firefox.

If you want to prepopulate the Log It main dialog with a Firefox URL, you can use the clipboard:

1. In Log It, set Start With to Clipboard.
2. In Firefox on the page of interest, move to the address bar (⌘L) and copy the URL (⌘C).
3. Launch Log It.

If you want a Markdown link from a Firefox webpage, I recommend using Copy as Markdown Link by @ComplexPoint. It’s awesome!

1. In Log It, set Start With to Clipboard.
2. Open Firefox and navigate to the page of interest.
3. Run Copy as Markdown link
4. Launch Log It

@Tomas, after considering the above, if you still need a second copy of Log It (with independent settings), let me know and I’ll provide instructions.
