Modified dictionary workflow

Hi,

 

I'd like to keep track of every word lookup I do using Alfred dictionary feature. Simple, appending a a text file will work to begin with. How can I achieve it?

Hi,

This can be achieved very simply with a workflow. Here is one I've thrown together to get you started:

 

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6749767/Alfred/Workflows/Dict%20lookup%20and%20save%20word.alfredworkflow

 

use keyword rdict to lookup the word. The word opens in the dictionary app, and is saved to ~/Desktop/words.txt

 

Cheers,

Andrew
