Screenshot Folder Actions Ideally, I would be able to take a screenshot and paste the image directly into iA Writer. Since iA Writer doesn't store images, however, this is not possible.

In order to not have to manually drag every screenshot into iA Writer, I would like to be able to 


take a screenshot,
save it in a folder
copy the file path to clipboard
paste the file path into iA Writer.


So far, I've changed the default folder for storing Screenshots and added a folder action. I found a script that copies the screenshot to my clipboard as a file. However, I can't figure out how to copy the file path to my clipboard instead, so I can easily paste it into iA Writer.
Any ideas? Could there be a better way?

end adding folder items to

property thePath : missing value

on adding folder items to theFolder after receiving theNewItems

    set the clipboard to thePath -- copies the file path to clipboard
    -- set the clipboard to POSIX file thePath -- copies actual file to clipboard

end adding folder items to
