applescript and keyboard shortcut for using keka
Posted: Wed Feb 26, 2020 1:50 am
hello,
i would like to make an automator app or workflow that does the following:
get a specific folder
copy the folder somewhere else
invoke the keyboard shortcut to compress the copied folder using keka: command+control+shift+k
i have tried multiple ways to arrange a workflow or applescript like this:
the keyboard shortcut "command+control+shift+c" is something i assigned myself to the "Compress using Keka" item in System Preferences. This item is located in Keyboard-->Services section.
i'd greatly appreciate some help with getting keka to compress the folder i want using a script or a workflow, so that I can automate a bunch of folder archives.

Code: Select all
tell application "Finder"
activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "c" using {command down, control down, shift down}
end tell
