Making a Systemwide Service
In OS X, services let you access functionality in one app from within another app. An app that provides a service advertises the operations it can perform on a particular type of data. Services are triggered from the Application Name > Services menu, or from contextual menus that appear when you Control-click on text, files, and other kinds of data. When you're manipulating a particular type of data, related services becomes available. For example, Mail provides a service that creates a new email from selected text.

Making a Script Available as a Service
A script can be made available as a service by embedding it in an Automator service workflow.
Launch Automator, found in
/Applications/
.When prompted, choose a document type of Service and click Choose.
At the top of the Automator document, configure the service. Animation carnival mac os.
If the service will process a specific type of data, such as text, files, or images, select the appropriate type. Otherwise, select 'no input.'
If the service will be available within the context of a specific app only, select the appropriate app. Otherwise, select 'any application.'
If the service will replace selected text with processed text, select the 'Output replaces selected text' checkbox.
Type
run
in the search field above the action library pane to filter the action library.A list of actions for running AppleScripts, JavaScripts, UNIX shell scripts, and more are displayed.
Drag an action, such as Run AppleScript or Run JavaScript, to the workflow area.
Write the script code and add it to the action. If the action contains additional configuration options, adjust them as needed.
For AppleScripts and JavaScripts, use the action's run handler template to process input data when the service runs, such as text or files. For workflows that replace selected text with processed text, be sure your workflow results in a text value. See Example Service Workflow Scripts.
When prompted, enter a name for the service.
Example Service Workflow Scripts
Listing 40-1 and Listing 40-2 provide example code that can be pasted into the Run AppleScript and Run JavaScript Automator actions to convert selected text to uppercase.

Triggering Service Workflows
Saved Automator service workflows automatically appear in services menus throughout the system at the appropriate time. For example, text processing workflows become available when you select text in an app. To run a service, select Application Name > Services > Service Workflow Name from the menu bar, or select Services > Service Workflow Name from a contextual menu.

Abstract
Drawing on our recent experiences in two research projects in interface design, we propose an alternative to the model of design research that uses generalizability as one of the fundamental criteria. Instead, we suggest that transferability is a more ‘designistic' factor, and that by privileging transferability in the design research process, we shift design back into the centre of design research. Although this strategy remains to be explored in depth, we provide one example of this kind of research, which involves a number of moves to repurpose an interface for one domain (drama) and community of users (actors, directors, and students) to another domain (football) and a different community (players, coaches, and fans of the game).
