I'm trying to do an exporting procedure from photoshop where I'll need to export and rename files from a single client provided psd.

I should be able to simplify my exporting procedure to some extent with an applescript that renames only the selected file with my current clipboard contents.

Unfortunately my scripting abilities are nonexistent, but the rest of the export procedure won't be a problem using photoshop actions and Hazel (which doesnt appear to have clipboard contents as a renaming option) to move things into appropriate subfolders, etc.

Any help appreciated, thanks!

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use clipboard for this since Hazel runs in the background and you can't be sure what is processing at any one time. Try searching around as I do recall scripts to bring up a dialog where you can enter text, though.
