Sitting in Starbucks, working on project and tender calls your name that your coffee is ready…I really felt to have known quick keyboard shortcut to lock my Mac (something similar to Windows+L or Alt+Ctrl+Del). Well after searching on Google I found lot of workarounds like enabling smart corner screensaver, using third party app, etc. But I came around to one of these blog which actually tells the real answer.

Hi All,

I was trying to search for some AppleScript which I can use to simulate similar feature as “Send as Attachment” or “Send to Mail Recipient” on Windows. I was able to find few AppleScript which were either doing it using Mail App on Mac or it was not for Mountain Lion. Finally, after few work arounds and googling I was able to make a AppleScript working on Mountain Lion using Sparrow mail client (it can be changed to work with any mail client). I like Sparrow as it is simple and light weight on your resources.

Following is the code snippet from Automator on Mac –

[as]
—
on run {input, parameters}

set fileList to {}
repeat with i in input
set fileList to fileList & i
end repeat

tell application "Sparrow"
activate
set theMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"Mail with attachments"}
tell theMessage
repeat with f in fileList
make new mail attachment with properties {filename:f as alias}
end repeat
compose
end tell
end tell

end run
—
[/as]

For using with another mail client, just replace “Sparrow” with your mail client name on Mac.

Enjoi!
