AppleScript droplet for pandoc file conversion

AppleScript droplet for pandoc file conversion

I created an AppleScript droplet for pandoc file conversion. It is 
available on GitHub here:

https://github.com/nathan-artist/AppleScripts

Any AppleScript wizards who would like to improve it can fork it on GitHub 
and submit a pull request.

Here is a longer description of the script:

This AppleScript droplet is designed to make and run a shell script that 
uses pandoc (the "swiss-army knife" for document conversion) to convert one 
or more files whose icons are dragged onto the droplet icon in the OS X 
Finder. The script converts multiple input files recursively, instead of 
concatenating multiple input files as pandoc does when run from the command 
line. We find this droplet to be much less tedious to use than the command 
line. To save the script as a droplet, open the script in Script Editor and 
save the script with file format: Application.

Nathan and others,

I've got a couple of similar things going on too. :-) One is a service, so 
you don't need to drop the file in question, just right-click on it. The 
other is a script that works with the editor MacDown to process the 
frontmost document, though it could easily be separated from it:

nice, I've something that processes the document that's opened in the 
frontmost window as well: https://github.com/mb21/Pandoc-Mac-OS-X-Services

Alos nice. I'd do more with the MacDown script, but MacDown doesn't support 
AppleScript (yet).

For those keeping score at home, I recently did another little service for 
OS X that uses pandoc to convert markdown text to rtf text in place. It 
only makes sense in an editor that can handle the styled text, but it makes 
it easy to do some quick styling in something like TextEdit, if you're used 
to using markdown.

https://github.com/Jmuccigr/Services/tree/master/Replace%20markdown%20with%20rtf

There's another one in the same repository that copies the styled text to 
the clipboard instead of replacing the existing text with it.
