  1. Still a +1 for me.

    Or +12 really because a year is ideal. Also, might this be solved by Alfred running a sorta-kinda backup job to prevent bloat? So Alfred stays at the 3 month limit. But, Alfred exports it's history every three months to prevent bloat. Then have a function in Alfred where you can use the clipboard itself to view into a 'clipboard history archive' so you're not keeping everything in the clipboard history. You're instead referencing an archive. Then you search those backups for the entry you want to find through the clipboard...

    idk really what I'm talking about other than, if not three months, can we have 6 months?

    :D Flattery will get you everywhere. Here's your snippet collection for the Wikipedia misspellings (a workflow isn't really appropriate).

     

    Do you have a link to the contents of the Microsoft autocorrect list?

     

    🗿🌟! Rockstar!

     

    deanishe! 

     

    I had that idea in my head. But, then I became fixed on the idea that I needed a workflow -and stopped thinking about snippets. Funny how the mind works.

     

    So I hit your link and get a 404. I tried browsing your site too. Even looked under snippet.  (Also checked your github repository)

    Can you re-upload? (On Microsoft list, I'll have to pull that off my work PC).

    Hi @leeleblanc, welcome to the forum.

     

     

    That depends entirely on what you want it to autocorrect…

     

    You could implement autocorrect for common misspellings or accented English words as snippets, but only whole words. You can't do your double capitals or -ing.

     

     

    @deanishe! To get a response from you, so cool. I've been all over web. Thanks!

     

    You turn up in everyone's must have Alfred workflows, best of lists, single blog posts we're people explain how to use Alfred. You are quite literally everywhere when it comes to Alfred.

     

    So, yes, you're right. I don't really care for the workflow to correct double CAps.

     

    I really only care about correcting:

    • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Lists_of_common_misspellings
      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Typo
      Microsoft Office autocorrect list

    So, how do I get going with some with some workflow help?

    Alfred Experts!

     

    Can a global autocorrect alfredworkflow be created to work across the entire Mac OS in any application? 

     

    I need your help. I have to use Windows at work. (I know. 🤮blargh🤮). But! I was able to convince my IT to get me a Mac. 💪 😁

     

    One of the most pleasurable aspects in Windows though is the app, Autohotkey. This software corrects so many Windows faults.

     

    A heavy lift by Autohotkey is automatic spelling correction -globally.

     

    • What you see below is comments in an .ahk file.
    • An ahk file can be opened in any coding application or plain text editor.
    • It is essentially a text file that can be read by Autohotkey if the file extension is .ahk

     

    I've seen a few incredible workflows for spelling. But, I can't find anything for automatic spelling correction. Does this workflow exist? Can you help me Obi Wans?

     

    Grateful for any input or thoughts!

    LL

     

    PS why don't I write a workflow? Well, I can't even program my coffee maker to brew automatically. Yes, I know pathetic. I won't even tell you how I still don't know how to program my microwave.

    INTRODUCTION
    ;
    ; This is an AutoHotKey script that implements AutoCorrect against several
    ; "Lists of common misspellings":
    ;
    ; This does not replace a proper spellchecker such as in Firefox, Word, etc.
    ; It is usually better to have uncertain typos highlighted by a spellchecker
    ; than to "correct" them incorrectly so that they are no longer even caught by
    ; a spellchecker: it is not the job of an autocorrector to correct *all*
    ; misspellings, but only those which are very obviously incorrect.
    ;
    ; From a suggestion by Tara Gibb, you can add your own corrections to any
    ; highlighted word by hitting Win+H. These will be added to a separate file,
    ; so that you can safely update this file without overwriting your changes.
    ;
    ; Some entries have more than one possible resolution (achive->achieve/archive)
    ; or are clearly a matter of deliberate personal writing style (wanna, colour)
    ;
    ; These have been placed at the end of this file and commented out, so you can
    ; easily edit and add them back in as you like, tailored to your preferences.
