Proxi v0.10

link: Proxi v0.10

In this update:

  • iChat task and trigger
  • Shell Script extra value
  • URL can now be embedded in other values or user defined text
  • View animation crash fixed
  • Trigger list disclosure states are now stored and recalled
  • Preliminary support for auto software update feature

Some good updates in this release I think. Most are pretty self explanatory, but I’ll go into detail on a couple of them.

First, there is a new extra value type: Shell Script (note: this is not an AppleScript). Use this extra value to append the results of a shell script to your trigger. To do this, open the extra values disclosure triangle for your trigger, click on the “+” button and select Shell Script.

In the value field, enter your script. The results will be placed in a value with the name indicated by the name field.

Another requested feature was the ability to embed a URL value in some other text or another value. I’ve added that in v0.10 as well. You’ll notice when you place an URL value in a text field, such as the Screen Message task, that a URL value has a popup triangle. Clicking on that triangle will present your choices for embedding that URL. You can select an existing value such as the title of an RSS feed item as I’m doing here:

Or you can select “Embed in text…” and enter whatever test your like, such as “link”.

That’s pretty much it for this update. Keep those cards and letters coming and feel free to spread the word about Proxi. We could use a few more users.

Thanks again for your help!
