Ask HN: What are your favourite macOS “Automator” automations?

[user0x1d]

I love to be able to open a new terminal window anywhere with a simple shortcut. Makes me so much faster at work.

Do you have any automations that save you time?

I use hammerspoon (https://www.hammerspoon.org/) to run a lot of shortcuts for myself, I find that the lua language whilst a little strange but still more easier to grok than automator/applescript.

Capslock + M: copies the title of my next meeting from Fantastical onto the clipboard and adds “ #meeting” to the end. I paste this into an Obsidian note during meetings.
