Week Projects: This is a week-based version of my previous Day Projects script (https://gist.github.com/Zettt/1401813)
-- Week Projects
--
-- Created by Zettt on 2015-12-28
-- zCasting 3000.
--
-- This script creates "Week Projects" in OmniFocus.
--
-- I use these "Week Projects" to put stuff, that I need to
-- do during a specific week, but aren't big enough to be their own project.
-- Things like "Call the doctor on Wednesday" or
-- "Check out the new store on Thursday" go in these.
-- You get the idea.
--
-- Note: I like dates being DD.MM.YYYY.
-- Leading zeros, no month names, four digit years.
-- In case you want to modify the names,
-- `man date` is your friend.
--
-- Note 2:
-- In order to use "set var to date otherVar
-- you need to give it a date string in your
-- locale. In Europe it's DD. MM. YYYY., in
-- USA it's probably YYYY/MM/DD. Please
-- edit accordingly in the shell script after +
--
