Ask HN: What are you favorite tiny tools?

Sure.

Diary:

  - Python script that fetches the diary template and fills it with information like location
  - With x-callback-url it is sent to drafts
  - in drafts I can edit the rest and have an action to upload it to working copy
In drafts the action Call: With x-callback-url open pythonista and parse the text for a telephone number. Then that's sent to the call program

Drafts Meeting notes: Launch python script. Scripts get the template from working copy and fills it with date and through a popup a Title. Want to change that so you can select the meeting from the calendar and have it filled in. Then sends it back to drafts.

I have a vacation list drafts pulls from working copy.

In drafts I have shortcuts to add that draft to due, Things or mail/whatsapp it.

The drafts forums and resource directory are a good starting point. Once you add Pythonsita all bets are off it becomes the most versatile app on the phone. Working copy is nice to have so you don't have to deal with templates in java script code or with tags in draft itself. Apparantly a mac app is coming, currently a pc user, this would almost be enough to just get a mac :-)
