Scenario: You’re working with the Flex SDK and you’re tracing messages to the Terminal via flashlog.txt. The damn logfile has heaps of clutter in it from the last project you were working on, and you want to clean it up.

Solution: Save this snippet and assign it a Quicksilver hotkey:

try
    do shell script "rm ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash\ Player/Logs/flashlog.txt"
    do shell script "touch ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash\ Player/Logs/flashlog.txt"
end try

Result: You are happy. Go drink beer.
