Deb, Sure, I have no problem with discussing KM or Hazel or any other Automation app on list, or off list.
Just for your edification, Hazel is a Daemon that watches folders for specific things and then performs an action based on the result. For instance, on my Air I have Hazel watch the Downloads folder for files ending in torrent. When she see's one she moves it to a folder named Sync. That folder is synced with a folder on my Mini using an app called BTSync. When Hazel on my Mini sees the file show up she grabs it an moves it to the folder that my torrent client is watching. The file is then downloaded. All without me doing anything except downloading the torrent file. This is just one example of what she can do. I have her filing and processing all sorts of things. And if you are wondering why I am referring to her as a she, its because I am old enough to remember the TV show of the same name. Oops guess I just dated myself.
