Open iTerm from finder

The code and instructions in this gist are from http://peterdowns.com/posts/open-iterm-finder-service.html. I've had to do this a few times and wanted to distill it the basics.

1. Open Automator
2. Create an Application
3. Choose Actions > Utilities > Run Applescript
4. Paste the contents of open_in_iterm.app into the window.
5. Save the script somewhere convenient
6. Find the script, then drag the script onto the Finder window while holding the command key (or in Yosemite, the command + option keys)

Using Swift libraries in Python

So... this is obviously totally, 100%, like for. real. not. supported. by. Apple. …yet?

But still... I thought it was pretty badass. And, seeing how there's already a Swift buildpack for Heroku you could move some slow code into Swift can call it as a library function. But, you know, not in production or anything. That would be silly, right?

Now, having said that, the actual Python/Swift interop may have bugs. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.

How to get Python code calling Swift functions:

pudquick

from Foundation import NSKeyedUnarchiver
from struct import unpack

# This entire function is black magic of the highest order and I'll blog about it later
def extract_share(bookmark_data):
    content_offset, = unpack('I', bookmark_data[12:16])
    first_TOC, = unpack('I', bookmark_data[content_offset:content_offset+4])
    first_TOC += content_offset
    TOC_len, rec_type, level, next_TOC, record_count = unpack('IIIII', bookmark_data[first_TOC:first_TOC+20])
    TOC_cursor = first_TOC + 20
