"Save QR Code" Action #1

It would be nice to have something that saves the QR code to a file with no fuss. Either a folder selection like "Create File" (Text Manipulation Actions plugin) or some default like the screenshots folder (defaults read com.apple.screencapture location
). In either case, it would be nice if the resulting file is selected in QS right afterwards (as with the screen capture actions).

Right now, the best I can do is "Copy QR Code" > Open Preview > Cmd-N > Save, or "Show QR Code" > Cmd-Shift-4 + Space the QR window > Go to my Screenshots folder.

I don't know have the Cocoa experience to submit a reliable pull request, but I thought I'd file this in case it is easy enough to implement.

Hi, thanks for your comment. I am considering this for the next version.
I personally don't have any use for that: I usually find myself pasting that QR Code in another document.

If you don't need an image-file per-se, you can also "Copy QR Code", and then browse into clipboard contents with quicksilver, and drag the icon to some folder in finder, which will create a Picture Clipping you can re-open later.

Alternatively, you can use services such as http://zxing.appspot.com/generator/ and Google's chart API that should let you customise further the generated QR Code, I'd recommend that for putting QR Codes on websites for example.
