OLD STUFF BELOW
Updated Instructions
I love Brett Terpstra's Marked, and its integration with Evernote is barebones and cool. Anyway, the instructions are:- Get the everwatch.rb script from here
- As written about here change line 8 to say
watch_folder = File.expand_path("~/Library/Application Support/Evernote/accounts/Evernote") - Run it in the background by using something
~/scripts/everwatch.rb &
I've Been Checking It Out, Now It's Broken!
You'll notice at some point that the script blows up, and if you're observant (or lucky, as I was) you'll note that it's the apostrophes that make it blow up. So replace the line that says:# convert the contents to plain text
txtnote = %x{echo '#{note}'|textutil -stdin -convert txt -stdout}
with this whole shebang
note = note.gsub("'","APOSTROPHEEE")
# convert the contents to plain text
txtnote = %x{echo '#{note}'|textutil -stdin -convert txt -stdout}
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("APOSTROPHEEE", "'")
While I'm here, I'll add my meager attempt to translate the bullets. It actually works (well, so far):
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("\t•","-") # 1st indent
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("\t◦"," -") # 2nd indent becomes 4 spaces
# evernote numbering, but only one level
txtnote = txtnote.gsub(/\t\d{1,4}\.\t/, "1. ")
And then you'll notice that second level Markdown bullets don't work, so add this:
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("\302\240", " ") # some bizarre space-looking character textutil or Evernote uses
Then I went crazy and redid the script a bit. Now it opens Marked on it's own (if you have the filetypes associated) and is less brittle to changes. Performance is the same (and Command-S in Evernote does help):
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("\t•","-") # 1st indent
txtnote = txtnote.gsub("\t◦"," -") # 2nd indent becomes 4 spaces
# evernote numbering, but only one level
