CarlosNZ reacted to rice.shawn in Workflows Help Workflow
@CarlosNZ: That looks like it might be something with ALP. Maybe there is a malformed info.plist file in your workflows directory.... I'll look into it.
I'm working on figuring out all the kinks that people are running into. It works fine on my system, but then we all have different workflows installed and in different states of development... I need to figure out possible places where it may be breaking.
Thanks for bearing with me. I think that I might have set this out for public consumption too soon. Expect more updates.

CarlosNZ got a reaction from nik in Tiny PNG workflow [Updated to v1.2]
This workflow will take a set of PNG or JPG files and compress them using the online TinyPNG service.
For more info on what it does to the image, see http://tinypng.com/
Usage:
This workflow works as either a File Action or a regular keyword process.
Either:
1) Select the PNG or JPG files you want processed (in Finder or Alfred), then select the "Compress with TinyPNG" File Action in Alfred.
2) Select the PNG or JPG files you want processed in Finder, launch Alfred, then use the “tinypng" keyword.
The processed files will be downloaded to a TinyPNG folder on your Desktop, along with a Report showing the success/failure of each file, and how much it has been compressed by.
The process may take some time, especially if you have selected several large image files, but you will notified on completion. However, if you have Growl/growlnotify installed, you will get a per-file notification as it progresses.
A Note on Heavy Usage:
The TinyPNG API has a limit of 500 files per month. As you can imagine, once a few people are using the workflow substantially, this doesn't take long to reach. I have provided a default API key built-in so you can use the workflow immediately. However, if you intend to continue using it in any substantial capacity I strongly suggest you visit https://tinypng.com/developers and register for your own API key. You can jump there with the keyword “tinypng_getkey” in Alfred. Once you’ve got your key, save it into the workflow configuration with the keyword “tinypng_config”
Download v1.3
Cheers,
Carl

28 November 2013 - updated to v1.1
Updated to use the new TinyPNG.com API Now works as a regular Alfred keyword (with Finder selection) as well as File Action
19 March 2014 - updated to v1.2
Now gives better error reporting on failures. (You’ll be able to tell if the monthly limit has been exceeded.) Consolidated processing to a single bash script. The Finder Selection script now just parses the input and sends it to the main script. (Irrelevant to user experience.) User can enter their own API key to prevent reaching the Free account limit when using a shared key. Updated icons (from TinyPNG.com)
6 October 2015 - updated to v1.3
Now supports JPG files as well.

CarlosNZ reacted to rice.shawn in Workflows Help Workflow
That's probably why it's failing: the keyword field is there, but it is empty. I can add an escape to the script so that it will just display something like "No Keyword Set." I'll push another version in a bit.

CarlosNZ reacted to phyllisstein in Alleyoop: Update Alfred Workflows
That's terribly strange. It'd be great if I could take a look at the workflow; it looks from the traceback it's finding a non-ASCII character in one of the files in the zip, maybe, but I'm not totally sure how to fix that.

CarlosNZ reacted to xtin in Alleyoop: Update Alfred Workflows
That is awesome, will include it into mine asap. One neat thing would be to have another command "ooplist" or so, to see which workflows are oop-enabled.

CarlosNZ reacted to jmjeong in agenda : Display events and tasks/to-do's from the OS X
You can specify the duration by 'agenda n'. 'agenda 7' display the 7 days event and remiders.
I would like to add this feature at the first time. But it seems to be impossible because iCalBuddy does not return any information to open the record.

CarlosNZ reacted to erist in How many applications have you gotten rid of since you installed Alfred 2?
So far for me...
- A color picker tool
- A timer app
- A battery health app
- Maybe quickcal if someone adds a sweet natural language ical workflow (but prob just use alfred with quickcal)
- TextExpander
Looking for more!

CarlosNZ reacted to Jonathan Tom in TimeZones - a World Clock script filter [updated to v1.7]
After the update, all seems to work here - thanks for the switch to Google it feels really zippy now!

CarlosNZ got a reaction from dan_djorgi in TimeZones - a World Clock script filter [updated to v1.7]
UPDATED to v1.5
Hey guys, fairly significant update here - the workflow now uses Google Maps APIs to get the timezone data, which you should find substantially more reliable than Wolfram Alpha.
Also, FLAGS!
See the first post for detailed changelist and download link.
PLEASE NOTE: Because this version stores its data substantially differently to previous versions, it will create a new timezones.txt file with default cities. However, it will attempt to save your old timezones.txt file to your Desktop, so you should be able to rebuild your previous list without too much hassle. Sorry for any inconvenience.

CarlosNZ reacted to bevesce in Find and paste unicode symbols - arrow, triangles, greek and more
Find and paste unicode symbols. I included a lot of them, like really a lot, over 20k I think, but for me workflow works pretty fast.
Symbol can be pasted as symbol (mh...), in html encoding, as python string and as unicode code point.

CarlosNZ reacted to rice.shawn in How to make 'Large Type', smaller, and change the size / location?
Cool. I didn't know about Mou, and I'm glad it's free. For anyone else looking at this thread, here's a link to the app: http://mouapp.com/. And it looks useful, something that I might have to install.
Without installing another program, it seems best then to use native HTML.
Otherwise, you could just install a md quicklook plugin. Here's one: https://github.com/toland/qlmarkdown/. The binary download is here: https://github.com/downloads/toland/qlmarkdown/QLMarkdown-1.3.zip
To install a quicklook plugin, just down the *.qlgenerator into /Library/QuickLook or ~/Library/QuickLook and then type qlmanage -r into a terminal.

CarlosNZ reacted to Carlos-Sz in Recent Items 4.3 beta 2 for Alfred 4: Finder Recent Items
Overview
Workflow to display recent Finder files and folders featuring:
5 default categories 2 custom categories Favorites, including a file action Keywords and hotkeys for Favorites and all categories apart Interaction with Open/Save dialogs and Finder Go To Folder Preview, reveal, open or use Alfred file actions Usage
Show Alfred and type the keyword rec:
You can also use the category keyword if you prefer to access the recent files directly, without an initial menu:
Now: keyword now Folders: keyword fol Applications: keyword apps Documents: keyword docs Downloads: keyword dow Custom Category 1: keyword c1 Custom Category 2: keyword c2 Favorites: keyword fav In addition, there is a hotkey for the keyword rec, Favorites and all categories apart.
Note that all keywords, as well as the hotkeys, can be changed (go to Alfred Preferences > Workflows).
Finally, once inside a category you have the following actions:
Return key: open the file or folder Command key: reveal the file or folder in Finder Option key: pass the file/older path to an open/save dialog or Finder window Control key: add/remove an item to/from Favorites Shift key: preview (Quick Look) the file or folder Custom Categories
You can set up to two custom categories:
Show Alfred and type the keyword recpref Select a category to configure and press return key Type an unique category name with at least 3 characters Type one or more (separated by comma) file types e.g.: com.adobe.pdf,public.plain-text To find a file type you can use Alfred Metadata Analyzer.
To remove a custom category press command key while highlighting one of them in recpref.
Favorites
All files or folders set as a favorite item will remain in the list no matter how old they are.
To add an item to Favorites just highlight a file or folder, hold control key and press return key.
To remove an item go to Favorites, highlight an item, hold control key and press return key.
You can also add items utilizing Alfred File Action (accepts multiple files).
Note that Favorites has also its own keyword (fav) and hotkey.
Interacting with Open/Save Dialog or Finder
You can pass a recent file or folder path, or an item in Favorites, to an open/save dialog or even the current Finder window to go to that folder:
when an open/save dialog is displayed type the keyword rec or any other category keyword find an item (a file or folder or an item from Favorites), highlight it, hold option key and press return key wait a bit so the workflow can load and paste the item path Default Folder
The workflow remembers the last path used per application. To use the feature just type the keyword df when an open/save dialog is displayed.
If the workflow was never used for the application, or the path does not exist anymore, then the keyword rec will be automatically triggered so you can select a path from a file or folder.
There is also a hotkey to make things even faster.
Make sure to give the feature time to process because e.g. if you hold keyboard keys way too long then the feature may not work as expected.
What’s new
Up to 2 custom categories (keyword recpref) Downloads category Keyword for each category Hotkey for each category Multiple files in Add to Favorites file action Changed Auto-path to Default Folder (keyworod df) Changed Just Now category to Now Added Help (keyword rechelp) Update to Alfred 2.3 features Several internal improvements
Download
Version 4.3 beta 2 (removed Alfred 3 references) Release date: 12 Jul 2020 Requires Alfred 4 Download
Version 4.2 Release date: 19 Jun 2016 Requires Alfred 3 Download
