Paste in the following AppleScript, then click the Hammer icon (to compile the code): on run This makes it easier to assign a keyboard shortcut to our service, which we'll do at the end.ĭrag and drop the 'Run AppleScript' action (in the Utilities Library) into the work area on the right. Set the Service to receive selected folders in Finder (the two drop-down menus at the top of the work area on the right). This will open a new Automator window, set up to create a Service. Start by launching Automator, and in the chooser that appears, select Service. This a simple Service for creating new files the currently-open folder in Finder, using AppleScript and Automator.
This is a bit old, but nothing is drastically different in 10.8: So any recommendations are more than welcome! I've searched a bit for these but haven't found anything of substance I could set up a hacky hotkey workaround but that's suboptimal, in my experience. How can I customize the macOS Finder context menu? I want to add the menu items: On top of that, it'd be really killer to have an "open terminal here" option that would open a terminal window already cd'd into the current working directory.
I'd really like to add a "New File" option right under "New Folder" in the right click menu, and just have it make a new file in the selected folder or finder window. However, I very much miss a few features of windows, one of them being how easy it was to create a new text file. I've found my workflow (web developer) has increased substantially and I love the general performance and snappiness of my OSX. I've been a native windows'er up until this year and have finally made the jump to OS X.
