Lion iCal Quick Event Applescript

I've found the QS plugin for iCal to be lacking now that iCal supports "Quick Event" plain text. It's smarter contextually than the iCal plugin, so I have found myself using QS to invoke iCal, hitting Command-n, typing in my event, etc. This maybe saves a keystroke or two, but mostly it's just more QS integrated and makes me happy.

To install, it needs to be placed in ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions

To use, just hit . then type your Quick Event text, e.g. "2pm-3pm Friday Meet with Clowns at Circus", tab to the iCal Quick Event.scpt action and hit return. I have it bringing you to the iCal event at this point because I often need to change my calendar from the default. It would be easy enough in the script to send a second return.

Hope it helps someone. It's pretty simple.
