process new downloads with LaunchBar

a great way to speed up opening or filing new downloads: send them to LaunchBar.
this gives you a lot more flexibility with what you can do with the file in just a single keystroke:
spacebar to Quicklook.
return to open.
cmd-return to reveal in Finder.
cmd-shift-R to rename.
start typing to select a folder to move the file to.
escape if the rule triggered by accident.
put this as the last rule for your downloads folder. then it will even trigger for the contents of archives that a previous rule has unzipped.
