10.5: Automatically Quick Look certain downloaded files
Authored by: lowbatteries on Wed, Mar 26 2008 at 8:42AM PDT

I downloaded the program "Quick Look Droplet" at http://www.apple.com/applescript/quickviewer/index.html - then I set Firefox (in Preferences > Content > File Types > Manage) to automatically open certain files with that application. I use this mainly for vcard files, as I view them often online but don't necessarily want to import them to address book.
