OS X service scripts
#!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU
# Adapted from Brett Terpstra’s original “Markdown to Evernote” service (http://brettterpstra.com/a-better-os-x-system-service-for-evernote-notes-with-multimarkdown/)
# Martin Kopischke 2011 – License: Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike (CC BY-SA) 3.0 Unported (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/)
# Changes: – create only one Evernote note per (Multi)Markdown input passed (instead of one per line)
# – do not choke on shell escape characters (use Tempfile instead of shell pipe for osascript)
# – default to MultiMarkdown 3 executable (instead of MMD 2 Perl script)
# – make smart typography processing optional (set SMARTY to 'false' to bypass processing;
# note smart typography cannot be disabled in MMD 3.0 and 3.0.1
# – handle both smart typography processing scripts (ie. SmartyPants.pl)
