With help from MacScripter.net, here's the finished scritp:
Code:
set QuicksilverTags to (path to home folder as string) & "Library:Caches:Quicksilver:Indexes:QSPresetQSFileTagsPlugIn.qsindex"
do shell script "grep string " & (quoted form of POSIX path of QuicksilverTags) & " | awk {'print $1'}"
set theTags to result
--> From the MacScripter.net Text Delimiters Tutorial.
set newText to switchText of theTags from "<string>qs.tag.file</string>" to ""
to switchText of currentText from SearchString to ReplaceString
set storedDelimiters to AppleScript's text item delimiters
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to SearchString
set currentText to currentText's text items
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ReplaceString
set currentText to currentText as Unicode text
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to storedDelimiters
currentText
set this_text to currentText
set new_text to ""
--> From the MacScripter Forum.
repeat with myPara in paragraphs of this_text
if new_text does not contain myPara then set new_text to new_text & myPara & return
end repeat
set new_text to (characters 1 thru -2 of new_text) as text
set more_text to new_text
set replace_text to ""
--> From MacScripter Forum.
repeat with myPara in paragraphs of more_text
if replace_text does not contain myPara then set replace_text to replace_text & (text 9 thru -10 of myPara) & return
end repeat
set output to "Tags: " & return & replace_text
end switchText -- the end of the handler.
