Hi this is my favorite script, but could you tell me please how to remove extension of file from task title? I’m a beginner in AppleScript and I’ve tried a lot but I could not do it (:
set task_title to "Pay " & (text 1 thru ((offset of "." in file_name) - 1) of file_name)
Note: This will truncate the filename after the first period/dot, so if there’s one in the filename other than the actual extension separator, it might not give the result you wanted.
hi guys, pls find below the same apple script, which somehow does not seem to work anymore. since i am completely illiterate on this, could someone pls point me to what needs to be done to make it work again? i am running omnifocus pro 2.11.1 (v113.24) on mac os high sierra, 10.13.1. thank you so much for your help! best, nick
