  1. Mind if I ask what your doing with it? Going to use it for storage for a workflow or what? Reason I ask is, SQLite would probably be easier to deal with
  2. Could also create a workflow that has a keyword item that launches the simulator
  3. This option isn't built in but MAY be possible using symlinks. I can't confirm this and don't know if there would be any kind of negative effects.
  4. Create a new workflow, click the + in the top left corner, and select Inputs->File Filter
  5. I'm pretty sure this functionality could also be achieved using the purge command (without having command line utile installed). I'm not sure how hard it is to updates yours but that would probably be a better path for end users since it doesn't require another installation to operate
  6. Are you referring to launching apps using hotkeys using Alfred or just launching apps found in search results?
  7. Sounds like something may have been messed up with the app cache or index. Under the Advanced tab, could you try clearing the application cache or reindexing and let me know your results?
  8. That depends on the license type that you purchased and the date that it was purchased. If you are a mega supporter, then the upgrade is free as it provides lifetime upgrades for free. If you have another license type, if you purchased a license AFTER Dec 1, 2012, the upgrade is free. If you purchased before Dec 1, 2012, then you would need to purchase an upgrade for Alfred. Other license types only provided free updates for Alfred 0.x - 1.x.
  9. As ctwise mentioned, you're fine. There are bound to be duplicate workflows created. Just be sure that you create your own thread for them and be sure to be considerate not post them in someone else's thread and steal attention from someone else's hard work.
  10. In the Contacts area of the preferences, create a custom action for the Phone field and set the action to be the uri scheme you mentioned above, replacing the <number to call> with {query}
  11. We can understand your frustration but using the templates mentioned my my post above, most extensions can be migrated quickly and easily. Also, as mentioned in some of my previous posts, Alfred 2 and the preferences were a complete rewrite of the original. They are structured, written, and stored completely different from the original. If you need help migrating anything over, I'd be happy to assist you.
  12. Not really. If you set up syncing on Alfred 2 then, as you set up one machine, the other will get synced. Also, migrating a v1 extension to v2 is really easy. The easiest was to perform this is to open Alfred preferences, head to the Workflows tab. Once you are there, click the + in the bottom of the Workflows list on the left side. Go to the Templates->Essentials and select Keyword to Script. That is the equivalent of creating an extension in Alfred 1. Double click the keyword item to set the title, subtitle, and keyword, then Save that. Double click the script item, and then paste the v1 extension code into the Script area and Save. This may not work perfectly for the more advanced extensions but will cover the majority of them.
  13. Don't forget to check out some of the templates when creating a workflow as well. They make it really easy to get started with Workflows as well
  14. It's a little more than having some of the same options. The preferences for v2 are built completely different, organized differently, and named differently internally. Extensions are still a plist but there is a LOT to it. Trust me, I attempted to create a workflow for migrating extensions as well. It's a HUGE task. Small things in v1 extensions have to be transformed into the individual modules for v2, form all the connections, set all the settings, etc. As mentioned by Andrew himself, adding this one thing would have set the release back significantly. Converting a v1 extension to a workflow yourself is a rather trivial task.
  15. When you press the right arrow, you should get a list of result actions from Alfred. Select the add to favorites action
  16. That option is under the Default Results, under Fallback Searches. There is s button at the very button to setup fallbacks. Just remove them all
  17. Most extensions and other items can be easily added or set back up, even the extensions using the workflow templates provided. If you need any assistance with it, I would be more than happy to help
  18. Alfred 2 is a new app and doesn't update directly from v1. Download Alfred 2 from the web site and use your new license to activate it
  19. As ctwise mentioned, check my blog, http://dferg.us, I've got a workflow available that will allow you to transfer snippets and custom searches from v1 to v2. Alfred preferences are completely rewritten and structured very differently than the original. If you have any issues, please post back here so we can follow the progress and help you out. Thanks
  20. It currently isn't possible to migrate that data. I'm not sure if that can be migrated or not.
  21. Tyler made some great recommendations. You can hit up Google and find tutorials for just about any language out there. Try looking for 'Hello world" tutorials for whatever language you'd like to learn. That gives you the MOST BASIC starting point of any language.
  22. I can understand the desire for such things but these things could be easily done with workflows, file actions, etc. As a side note, you can use hotkeys to do some things with the listed results, see the Advanced tab under Alfred 2 prefs. These actions are limited though.
  23. Glad to help. If you need any help getting started with the workflows class or just creating workflows in general, don't hesitate to ask. I'm always willing and available to help out.
  24. Just a heads up, bigluck has already made a workflow that returns Transmit faves. Also, ExtensionUtils has been a constantly evolving and updated thing. It's not called just Workflows. I have a newer version available on my blog, dferg.us. Documentation and a more updated version can be found there. I also need to push a few more updates, but I have to get a few more things done in preparation for Alfred 2.
  25. Text size works the exact same way. Cmd+click the text to increase size, Shift+Cmd+click text to decrease font size.
