You might also like more direct quicksilver integration. First find

Support/Quicksilver/Actions/ Make sure that the Actions directory is
listed in Catalog/Custom in quicksilver prefs.
Then all you have to do is bring up quicksilver, type todo, use the
process text action and type everything in the third box; responses
from todo.sh will pop up in transient, transparent floating
notifications. Once you've used it once, process text becomes the
