OmniFocus and Remember the Milk

mbonilla says:
Hello,

For Remember the Milk users who also rely on Remember the Milk, I wrote an AppleScript that emails Next Actions and "Bucket" actions to Remember the Milk. Click here for details:

I hope this helps someone. MB

Does it automatically tag and organize the tasks, or send them as is?

And what does it mail through?

Where should I install this to use? I tried to run and it timed out, but I would love to use this. That way I can live in Omni, but go mobile with RTM and provide an effective mobile solution.

The only thing better would be a "spanning-sync" type solution between Omnifocus and RTM *drools*

Oh wow. This would be fantastic - omnifocus locally with the RTM web component. On the iPhone right now, but will take this script for a test drive when I get local.
Someone hacked a script together that syncs OF with Toodledo, but RTM would be the bee's knees.
SO tired of waiting for ofocus to get their web piece out.

This link is no longer valid. Does anyone have access to the AppleScript? I'd like to take a look at it.

I've been using the nighty builds of OmniFocus and this does not play well with 1.5

@erifneerg: I've had no trouble getting this work with 1.5, but I have had some trouble figuring out workflow...suggestions?

This script, which is awesome @mbonilla, is currently a 1-time use migration tool, essentially to move your entire database over to RTM, cleverly, through e-mail. It seems it would be incredibly useful to send out only new tasks, so you can keep RTM with you in the cloud.

I'm sure there is a huge demand for people like me, who use a PC at work and a Mac at home, and an iPhone in between, to sync Omnifocus in some way on a windows machine. RTM seems the best route since it's with you wherever you go. The script's site says that the new RTM iPhone app replaces the functionality of this script, which I disagree with. Omnifocus is very different from RTM, and I think works nicely with RTM, not necessarily instead of it.

So any ideas to keep tasks everywhere and still use Omnifocus?

After using OmniFocus for several months, I'm ready to abandon it to return to RTM. For me the winning attributes are flexibility (multiple tags, smart lists), web-based portability, mobile access without an iPhone, and being able to share my tasks with other people.

So anyone have other suggestions for importing my OmniFocus tasks into Remember the Milk while maintaining some of the data I need (ie: due dates, projects, notes, and contexts)?
