    I use iTerm instead of Terminal, so I'm not sure if this code catches all conditions, but you can do this:
    Open Alfred Preferences, click the Features tab and click Terminal / Shell in the sidebar. Set Application to Custom and paste this script in the large textfield: on alfred_script(q) tell application "Terminal" if exists window 1 then do script q in window 1 else do script q end if activate end tell end alfred_script Close Alfred Preferences to save the changes.
     
    Note that when you run a Terminal command manually with Alfred (by prefixing it with ">"), it will now also run in the existing window.

    Perfect! I've used a bit of AppleScript I've been using with Emacs for years:
    on alfred_script(q) tell application "Terminal" try if (count of windows) is 0 then do script q else do script q in window 1 end if activate on error beep end try end tell end alfred_script That works a treat: if I already have a Terminal window open it'll send the commands there, otherwise it'll create a new window.
