i made this little script :
Code:
--Empty Trash
tell application "Finder"
	empty the trash
	beep
end tell
And when I run the the script it works fine. so I open the Automator and made it in to a app.
And that runs fine so I'm thinking to make a keyboard shortcut to it so I can just use a few keys to run the app.
But for some reason it work work with a shortcut?
If you click on it it will run but not with the shortcut i made to it.

Did you try modifying the short cut? Command-T is used in lots of apps (like add to sidebar in Finder, new tab in Firefox, Safara and other tab-oriented applications, etc). I'm not sure what takes precedence, app or global shortcut, but I would change it to something else.

Well change the keys and not help there. have Quicksilver gave that a try and didn't open so not sure what it is .

edit : I took a little time and read one of the tuts on Quicksilver and got it working now. thanks for pointing Quicksilver out to me.
