Integrate Skype users into Address Book
Here's what I did to make it work, both to call phone numbers that are in Address Book's Phone fields and to call Skype user id's that are in the IM/Jabber fields: I pasted the Applescript above into Script Editor (in applications > applescript). First I changed: on action title for p with e return "Call with Skype" end action title To:
on action title for p with e return "SkypeOut" end action title Because I preferred the context menu to have a shorter item. Then "Save As...": SkypeOut.scpt in Library > Address Book Plug-Ins. Then I changed: on action title for p with e return "SkypeOut" end action title To:
on action title for p with e return "SkypeMe" end action title And:
on action property return "phone" end action property To:
on action property return "jabber" end action property And:
set x to value of e as string if character 1 of x is not "+" then set x to "+1" & x end if To:
set x to value of e as string Meaning that I simply deleted:
if character 1 of x is not "+" then set x to "+1" & x end if And then "Saved As...": SkypeMe.scpt in the same folder. If Address Book is open, quit and reopen it. You should then get "SkypeOut" in the context menu when you click on "home", "work", "mobile", etc in the address field and "SkypeMe" in the context menu when you click on "home", "work", etc, in an IM/Jabber field. Now, does anyone have the smarts to do the same thing so that I can have the option to "SkypeIM" from the Address Book to do a text/IM? And, to do a plug-in for Adium so that I can IM from the Address Book? |
