It seems this should be basic or at least easy to do, but I can't find anything on Google. Hrm... If not, what's the easiest way to automate turning HTML links to PDFs into the thumbnails of those PDFs? Is there a way to export/capture the quicklook thumbnail as an image?

Speaking of open, I added the following to my .bashrc:

function open () {
if [ -z "$*" ]; then
/usr/bin/open .
else
/usr/bin/open “$@”
fi
}

Now instead of typing open ., I can just type open.

This is basically equivalent to double-clicking the file in Finder, so images or PDFs will open in Preview. Then you can just hit ?Q to quit when you’re done.
