    johnjddoe got a reaction from clavichord93 in Allow "quick look" for Dictionary   
    Alfred's built-in dictionary is great, but often the subtext area is too small to be able to read the full definition. It would be fantastic if you could quick-look the result (just press Shift) and then it would show a small popup that showed the full definition, either like the quick look for a text file or like Alfred's large text overlay.

    Alfred provides fairly decent escaping of parameters that works for the majority of use cases (so this isn't terribly high priority). However, Alfred still doesn't account for all possible inputs. For all special characters, see http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/xcu_chap02.html. Since there's so many, I think instead of allowing the user to tick and untick each one, you should provide a few options using radio buttons. Something like "All", "Double quotes" and "None" (and possibly "Custom").
     
    You should also make clear somewhere how "All" should be used, i.e. does {query} need to be in double quotes or not:
    python myscript.py {query}  
    vs
    python myscript.py "{query}"

    It'd be nice if the displayed notifications (from the output action) could have a configurable action on click, like many notifications from other applications have.

    johnjddoe reacted to ca01ei in How about building an "app store" for workflows ?   
    workflows can add really fantastic functions for Alfred, but as most workflows are just created and shared by individual user instead of professional developers, we have to search and download workflows from blogs , forums and github . Searching and updating workflows is way too cumbersome for users who love productivity as of Alfred. So Why not build a workflow store where we can search and update workflows just by typing  wf {query} and wf update  I don't know if selling workflows is a good idea, but sharing them in this way is definitely a good one.
     
    Is there anyone agree with me ?
