    Yes, good idea. I'll try and implement something like this when I next do an update. (Might not be for a while, pretty busy at the moment.) In the meantime, the instructions for manually setting it to 24h display are above: http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/491-timezones-a-world-clock-script-filter-updated-to-v17/?p=29339 Cheers, Carl.

    Hi Matt, glad you like it. Personally, I haven't really used Hazel, and I'm not sure how you'd achieve what you want to achieve. I'm sure it could be done if Hazel can trigger shell scripts based on watch folders. Sorry I can't be more specific at this point. Hope you can make sense of the TinyPNG API requests in the tinypng.sh script -- that's the stuff you'll need to run from the Watch Folder trigger. Cheers, Carl.

    Thanks for the suggestion, I've updated it now. Cheers.

    Thanks a lot. Yes, I've had a similar problem myself, as did others here. It's probably to do with folder permissions. The simplest thing to try is to reset the workflow completely using the "timer nuke" command, which will delete all the working folders. The next time you run it, it will re-create them and execute the 'first run' routines. That should sort out the problem.

    Hi. I don't have a lot of control over this with Notification Centre, but for me it works like you say. The first notification goes away on its own whereas the final one has a "Close" and "Show" button, which requires clicking. Is this not how it is for you? Cheers, Carl.

    Hey there, politicus. There should already be a notification that pops up. You can choose between Growl or OS X Notification Center, so make sure the workflow is set to use the correct one for you. If it's not showing up, you may have to look at your Notification Center (or Growl) settings. Thanks for the feedback.

    Yes, but you'll need to manually edit the code, if you're cool with that. In the workflow folder (right-click in the workflow list, select "Show in Finder"), open up the file 'timezone_list.sh' in a text editor. Look for these two lines near the top (line 29-30): city_time=$(date -u -j -f %s $city_epochtime +"%l:%M %p") #Create readable time expression city_date=$(date -u -j -f %s $city_epochtime +"%A %e %B %Y") #Create readable date expression Then just change the time exprssion (in quote) to what you want, according to this formatting. So, to get 16:00 instead of 4:00PM, you would make the first line: city_time=$(date -u -j -f %s $city_epochtime +"%H:%M %p") #Create readable time expression Hope that helps. (NB: There is another version of these lines near the bottom, which applies to custom lookups.)

    That's a great idea. I've been wanting to try and implement something like this, so I'll definitely look into it. Just need to find some spare time.

    Hi there. You'd have to modify quite a few things for it to handle seconds, unfortunately. I hadn't bothered to do it, because I thought it would be used as more of a crude measuring tool, but a few people have asked for it now so I may update it at some point. Unfortunately, I'm pretty busy at the moment so it probably won't be any time soon. Sorry about that.

    Yeah, seems to some annoying permissions error brought on by upgrading to Mavericks. I had it myself, but nuking seemed to sort it. The Growl notifications are sticky by default, I believe. As for notification centre, I don't have much control over how they behave. I don't believe there's a way to make them sticky, although if anyone knows how, I'm keen to find out. Personally, I have this workflow set to use Growl for this and a few other reasons.
  11. CarlosNZ
    Yup, makes it unusably slow on my system I'm afraid.
  12. CarlosNZ
    Didn't think I'd ever need this, but sure enough, it comes in handy once in a while. Cheers.
  13. CarlosNZ
    Very nice. It seems to choke on certain characters though. In particular, the smart quotes “” & ‘’ are the first ones I've found -- the output is just the same as the input in that case. Also -- one small aesthetic suggestion: make the result subtext (current just says "Text Massager") give a preview of the transformed text. That'd be pretty cool. Great work though. Thanks a lot.
  14. CarlosNZ
    This is a great idea, although I'd suggest you add a keyword with a script filter list of conversions, as all those hotkeys are going to get unwieldy once the list of available transformations grows. Speaking of which, I'd love to see a "case conversion" transformation. There's at least six options there that I can think of: CONVERT ALL TO UPPER convert all to lower Capitilize Words Capitalize sentences Capitalize lines Convert to Title Case Maybe this wasn't what you had in mind, and you don't want it getting unwieldy. Although, I was thinking of building a case conversion workflow of my own, but if you were going to add it to this then I won't bother. Up to you. Carl.

    Oops. My fault. It would appear that the workflow wasn't creating the folder if it wasn't already present. I've just pushed out a fixed version now. (Download link in first post). Sorry, and thanks for reporting it. Cheers, Carl.
  16. CarlosNZ
    That's odd. Can you create that folder manually "carlosnz.dialler", then run the API setup again ie. ":dialsetup YOUR_API_KEY"? Carl
  17. CarlosNZ
    Hi there. This could be a file permissions problem. Can you check if the following file exists: /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/carlosnz.dialler/api_key And if so, is your API key stored in it? Cheers, Carl.
  18. CarlosNZ
    Hi folks, I've updated this workflow, which should hopefully address some of the problems people have been having. In particular, it seems the Applescript dialog was causing inconsistent results between different versions of OS X. So I've got rid of that completely and now you just enter your API key directly into Alfred. Type dial help into Alfred for full instructions. (See first post for download link, or check Packal.)

    Bananas

    CarlosNZ posted a topic in Themes

    I've been trawling the net for popular colour palette sets and trying to build Alfred themes out of them. I thought this one turned out quite nice: Download: Bananas theme

    Update to v1.5 — A fairly major upgrade. Nice new DeskDrawer folder icon YES! Now you can. Use the File Action "Protect from DeskDrawer Sweep" or the keyword "protect" to achieve this. (Reverse it with the File Action "UnProtect from DeskDrawer Sweep" or the keyword "unprotect".) YES! Now you can. (And it looks great with the new folder icon too! ) Additional improvements include: “Undo” function to reverse the last “Move” to DeskDrawer or Sweep. (keyword "unmove") Fix for XML-illegal characters in DeskDrawer filenames. More icons. Removed AlleyOop updater support. Default DeskDrawer location is now Home folder. Local documentation (keyword: "deskdrawer help") Miscellaneous minor tweaks and fixes. See first post or Packal for download. NB: I discovered that, due to the way Alfred handles the zip/unzip of workflow archives, custom icons are not preserved. So I've had to resort to a bit of hackery to get the new DeskDrawer folder icon to show up. (Basically, it's in its own zip within the workflow and is extracted and inserted on initial run/upgrade.) I think it's working okay, but please let me know if you have any problems in this department. I've only been able to personally test it on Mavericks.

    This might be a problem with Notification Center itself rather than Alfred, but I thought I'd point it out anyway and see. Basically, there is a certain length of text output which is unnecessarily truncated in Notifications. For example the output, "Here is a line of text that doesn't quite fit" renders like this: However, if you add a bit more to the string, you get this: This one breaks in the right place and you can see the whole text output. I'm running OS X 10.9.2 with the latest public Alfred release on a 2009 Macbook Pro. Cheers.

    One question -- what order are the results showing up in? They don't seem to be either chronological or alphabetical.
  23. CarlosNZ
    Wow, that was fast! Impressive. And thanks.
  24. CarlosNZ
    Great stuff. Just one comment — it would seem the default action is to visit the link and archive it in Pocket and you have to hold "Ctrl" to visit without archiving. Personally, I'd prefer it if this was the other way round and it didn't archive by default. I realise I can probably just tweak the workflow to change this around, but thought I'd let you know anyway. Oh, and one more little thing — it would be good to get a notification when archiving links. But well done. I'll find this really handy, I think.
  25. CarlosNZ
    I've finally got round to addressing this. The city list will now always display the results in the same order. (I just removed the "uid" parameter.) Updated version 1.7 now available for download from the first post.
