Send to some tools not working
Reported by Eric Eggert | June 18th, 2014 @ 08:30 PM
Hi!
As described on Twitter, I see the following behavior:
The following Command menu items don’t work:
- Calendar (App starts when not open, but no data seems to be transferred even when app was open)
- Omni Focus (App starts when not open, but no data seems to be transferred even when app was open)
- Sublime Text (Opens just an empty document with no name?)
- TaskPaper (Nothing happens)
The following Command menu items do work:
- Evernote
- Fantastical
- Reminders
Not tested:
- Lighthouse (Nothing happens, but I’m not supposed what should happen if I have a non-lighthouse mail selected)
- MacVIM
- The HitList
- Things
I have tried to replace the app (latest Beta) with the latest beta from the website which also didn’t help.
Hope that we can work it out somehow.
Best, Eric

What revision of MailMate are you using?
To make sure it's not a fixed issue then try the latest cutting edge version of MailMate. There is a link in ticket #816 which also is a warning that this revision may be unstable for other reasons.
You can enable debug info like this:
defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmDebugCommands -bool YESThen launch MailMate like this:
/Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/MacOS/MailMate -

I have now updated to cutting edge™ and it is the same behavior. Attached log messages below. Tried “Omnifocus -> Add with summary” first and the just “Omnifocus -> Add”.

The debug output looks fine. It just dumps the environment variables for the command, but the command does not appear to fail.
The Lighthouse command simply opens the corresponding ticket. Does that also fail? (Select a Lighthouse email first.)

That works. It’s really crazy. The TaskPaper one used to work few weeks ago as well, but doesn’t do a thing now…

I don't have other reports about this yet which means I suspect it's a local issue.
We can check if the AppleScript part of the OmniFocus command for creating a note works:
(printf "The name\nThe note\n" > /tmp/file.txt) && /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/OmniFocus.mmBundle/Support/bin/create_task /tmp/file.txt -

Ha!
OmniFocus got an error: Scripting OmniFocus is a Pro feature.
That makes sense O_o I didn’t know that the MailMate command needed OmniFocus Pro. Works like a charm after upgrading.
Sorry for the trouble :-)

No problem. I wasn't aware of this myself.
