As Luc mentioned, there are plans to support multi-selection in the near future. We’re going to hold off on supporting any kind of multi-selection in Tinderbox until we can do it in a way which is in line with Hook’s model for it.

Obviously users are welcome and encouraged to use custom scripts such as the ones you’ve written, but Tinderbox’s model of one URL to multiple selected notes is at odds with Hook’s (planned) model which is multiple URLs to multiple selected notes. So it won’t be included in the default integration.

After thinking about it I’ve decided to use the same URL structure as you initially designed, with `identifier;?filepath` for Hook’s default integration with Tinderbox

So the only functional changes to the scripts will be

1. Returns a link to the file if no notes are selected
2. Returns nothing if multiple notes are selected, anticipating future multi-selection support
