I would love to be able to send selected actions to email.

Here are some uses:

+ You want to share a context with a person. For example, I have a people context for each person that reports to me. This would be a handy way to share all of my "Mary" agenda items with Mary.

+ Send your mobile actions to an email. . . this would enable you to send your mobile contexts to an email which you could pick up with your iphone.

One day, I need to learn to applescript!

Does copy & paste not meet the need ?

Not really as it just put the Task text in. Would like to see due data and related project.

Thanks,

Copy and Paste doesn't meet the need for these two reasons:

1) It would be helpful if there was some sort of structure such as:

Home Depot

Buy this [bathroom project]
Buy that [deck project]

Target

Buy this [bathroom project]
Buy that [deck project]

when you copy and paste everything is flattened. In an ideal world, the due dates would be copied.

2) I want to automate this-- for example at 3:00 ical triggers a script to email a certain perspective. I can then pick it up on my iphone.

The core of the code could be adapted from this earlier post.

A first draft, which builds an email from the contexts (or projects, in project view) which are selected in the left-hand sidebar.

Have a look at my script, presented on this thread.
I plan to update it soon to allow the sending of more than one task at a time.
