Can Omnifocus be made to include those links when clipping from Evernote? It would be a killer combo.
I second that strongly. Referring back to the note would be very helpful (say, in case the note changes).
 
Might be of interest:

You can paste that link into just about anything—other notes, calendars, to-do lists, third party apps, etc. Whenever you click on the link, it’ll open the note.
 
Support for Note Links ROCKS! works great with OF on all platforms. :) Finally!
 
All,

I must say, finally being able to link a OF task to a granular Evernote note item is huge for me.

Example:
After taking detailed, handwritten meeting notes, I extract any next actions, then scan, title and tag the paper notes into Evernote for record keeping.

Then in the Next Action item note field, I establish a link to the scanned meeting notes. When I am ready to act on the action, boom, there are the complete notes, in context, ready for my review, as needed, to provide context.

It brings the filing system of Evernote to life. Being able to "reach in" and directly access a specific note has quite an impact.

I'd encourage OF power users to explore this and leverage it into the system.

And, as always, YMMV.

peace and love,

andy

Evernote Note Links are indeed great.

Questions:
1) When clipping to OmniFocus Mac, is there a way for a Evernote Note Link to be added automatically to the Notes Field (just as it does for URL’s from Safari, for example)?
2) Is a plug-in needed?
3) Does it already so function and I am missing it?

This does not seem to be the case. If you want the text of the note AND a link you need to paste the text and then go back to the note and copy the link and paste it to OF. I am finding that pasting the link is good enough, as when I click on it, the right note opens.

If I am wrong and there is a way to clip the note text and the link to the note all at the same time, someone holler.
 
I think you're right that it requires two steps and the clipper doesn't include the note URL as it does in, say, Safari. I would love it to so I'm writing to OmniFocus support: omnifocus@omnigroup.com

I think that's the only way they take feature requests so if you'd also like to be to clip from Evernote and have the link back to the note be included, go ahead and email them.

Support was nice but didn't say they'd be implementing this, so I hacked together an AppleScript:

Feel free to fork and improve upon it.
