How create a RTF file in an open folder with TextSoap?

[omn...@gmail.com]

There are rather simple ways to create a TXT file in a folder, such as

tell application "Finder" to make new file at (the target of the front window) as alias

used with an Automator Quick Action for example.

But mostly I use the RTF and with TextSoap.

Hey Omar, 

I dont know about creating a rtf file directly, but I could suggest this :

You could add a step to your Quick action, a shell script that could then convert to rtf.

For example : 

cat

textutil -convert rtf /PATH/TO/YOUR/text.txt

Even better, if it's always in the same folder you are doing this line 👆🏼  ,

could be the same, but in a folder action that would trigger every time a new txt files i added/created in it. 

Or

BEST:

Use the same function that is on your shared link to create a txt. :

   touch name.txt

  remplace the 👆🏼 by 👇🏼 

1.           touch name.rtf

And once again, you can run this as a shell script,  or shortcut.

I hope I'm not too complicating my answer. 😅 

and that it will be useful to you ;)
