What is this?
I recently bought Salling Clicker and quickly hacked together some scripts which might be useful to others, too:
![]() (Drag into Clicker to install) | Fire Proximity Control |
![]() (Drag into Clicker to install) | Mailsmith Proximity Control |
![]() (Drag into Clicker to install) | VLC Remote |
![]() (Drag into Clicker to install) | Brightness Proximity Control |
This is all the scripts do at the moment, and I haven't done any kind of extensive testing. They seem to work just fine, but if they don't work for you, you're free to improve them and either send the changes back to me or release them on your own. I'll probably add additional features when I find the time.
automated iSync synchronisations
Something which is somewhat related to those Salling Clicker scripts: There are some scripts for Clicker that automatically start an iSync synchronisation when you enter proximity. This didn't work for me, as I often didn't stay long enough for the backup to finish, so I did something different: I set up a cron task that runs the synchronisation periodically. This is easily done using CronniX. Just enter this command to start your backup:
osascript -e 'tell application "iSync" to synchronize'
