Hi,
I wonder if that is possible to pass input variables (maybe via NamedClipboard) to KM macro? It will be great to have the same experience as we have with "Search Templates" in LB

Take a look here

With help in the KM forum I managed to create scripts to set variables in scripts from KM variables, and pass variables from scripts to KM named clipboards.

Thanks @jonohunt that was very helpful. I am curious if as you told, did you manage to publish the final version?

I didn’t really create macros.

I just ended up creating scripts to run through LaunchBar to send text to specific named clipboards, and to paste from specific named clipboards via LaunchBar.
