Notes with New Text File with Tag 4.0 (nvALT, direct paste, new file in Finder and more)

[benigno]

Hello Carlos,

 

    Thank you for this great workflow. I need to know, is there any way I can set it up to avoid problems with accented words ? I take many notes in Spanish and they get a bit screwed up in the text file.

 

 

nf Canción, Comía, Mamá, Música, Niño becomes:

Canci—n, Com’a, Mam‡, Mœsica, Ni–o...

 

Thanks a lot,

Benigno.

Hello,

 

    One more thing, although I am not sure I have done something wrong. I have used journal several times, and they all insert an extra line.

 

    Commands issued:

nf Prueba 1
nf Prueba 2
nf Prueba 3@

Results:

# 2014-05-13 Tuesday 13 May 2014 10:36:03
Prueba 3

# 2014-05-13 Tuesday 13 May 2014 10:35:51


# 2014-05-13 Tuesday 13 May 2014 10:35:51
Prueba 2

# 2014-05-13 Tuesday 13 May 2014 10:35:36


# 2014-05-13 Tuesday 13 May 2014 10:35:36
Prueba 1

Duplicating in each case the first line in the file and then prepending the new journal entry as you can see.

 

Cheers, and thanks again,

Benigno.

I tried to reproduce the issue but so far i couldn’t.

 

Can you please give me more details? Something like:

 

1. What modifier key are you using? Shift, Control or Option?

 

2. When you say you are using, for example, nf Prueba 1 you mean nf #Prueba 1 right?

 

3. What item you are using to create a note? New Note, New File from Clipboard or New File from Text Selection?

 

Thank you.

Please, delete the current workflow then try this build.

This is a really well thought out and useful workflow. Thank you!

 

I have a suggestion/request. Is there a way to set a view in nvAlt action by arrowing right from one of the filtered "ns" search results? Currently it seems the only way to open in nvAlt is to narrow the search results by typing until the one I want is the top result. I'd like to be able to select one of several filtered results, and even if it's not the top result, open it in nvAlt.

This workflow looks very useful but it doesn't work in Alfred 3 for me (Alfred 3.2.1, macOS 10.12.2), can it be easily fixed?

This is an excellent workflow and it does not work in Alfred 3.  Many of these you just change it to saying Alfred 3 in the code but I can't seem to do it with this one.
