I'm often creating PDF files from web pages in MacOS X (10.6) and very often I have the problem that the automatically proposed file name (based on the name of the web page) contains many special characters.
So I wonder: is there an easy way (apple script, shell script, OS X service) which takes a string (like this file name) and converts it by
- removing all spaces and other special characters (also those which might be allowed in OS X, but forbidden in Windows or Linux!! as I'm often transferring files to our PC)
- maybe starting each word (after a removed space) with an uppercase letter
- ... what else could be important?
I'm using Quicksilver, so maybe it could be possible to create a command which makes it possible to replace the current text selection (in the file save as... dialog) by a converted string.
1How would one go about doing this in a Linux environment? (Or, better yet, in Cygwin.) – nitrl – 2013-07-11T20:20:36.783
