Save selected text from Safari to a text file
Authored by: Fofer on Feb 23, '04 12:11:13PM

Well, as the hint nicely explains, it saves it all to one clean text file, with URL and timestamp, and appends any future text clippings to the same file.

Text clippings are nice and underappreciated (methinks because you have to wait 2-3 seconds before dragging the text from Safari, lest the selection gets deselected.) Still, some folks don't want 34 text clippings on their desktop. This script can help.

Nice hint, BTW, thanks!
