It's been a long while since I've posted anything on here. I'm currently working on cleaning up the code and then I might start posting again.
The focus will continue to be on scripting and automations, but a lot has changed since the last post and so I might find …
Throughout the day I think of things that I need to do after work or this coming weekend. The best way for me to not forget these is to quickly get them into Omnifocus. I've been using Drafts on my iPhone and Alfred on my Mac to quickly create tasks …
