I often open and choose the same web sites from a list of about 20.
I would like to know what the most efficient approach would be to do so.
The idea is to display a list of URLs → user selects a few → User press hotkey and those sites open. I could even add select browser and if new window created or not at the end.
I can do this with open files thanks to @JMichaelTX 's macro
I'm just testing a version of A Few Favorites that adds a fourth column for URLs. Bookmarks, essentially, but supporting any URL protocol (like facetime://).
I'll be releasing it shortly but the trick for URLs is to use the Open URL action rather than the Open action. If you want to roll your own list of bookmarks, that's the ticket.
Fantastic! I am reading through the documentation and the structure of the macro. Can't believe I never saw your macro before.
Just an idea: in addition to URLs how about adding a list of favorite KM macros?
I have a list of macros that I often run. It would be yet another approach to running macros apart from palettes, including the global macro palette, shortcuts, etc
I am also going to look at your personal repertory of macros because you seem very talented.
Well (he says with a wink), with URL support in A Few Favorites, any Keyboard Maestro macro that can be triggered by a URL (Triggered by Script up top on each macro) can indeed be activated by the new version. Just tested that, in fact.
I'm not sure it's useful for more than a handful of macros so I think that suffices. At least for the kind of macro whose trigger you forget but need nonetheless. More popular ones become habit.
I have gone through the macro action by action. All seems clear except for below.
What is the purpose and what does the regex do ?
The only reason I would see to edit the list is to address multi-line URLs
thank you
