Select a file in Finder and hit your hotkey. Adds the date to the filename before the suffix E.g. Item Name.xxx -> Item Name-03-25-2013.xxx Add Date To Filename.alfredworkflow Default date format changed to YYYYMMDD per advice from atadams. Now: Item Name.xxx -> Item Name-20130523.xxx v1.1: Add Date To Filename.alfredworkflow

I added some simple error checks.

Here’s my first attempt at an Alfred 2 workflow: Compare Finder Items in Kaleidoscope. It compares two selected Finder items with Kaleidoscope. E.g. select two files and hit your hotkey (I used ⇧⌘K) and the files open in Kaleidoscope. Same for folders as Kaleidoscope 2 can compare folders. It calls a shell script that runs an Automator workflow. It does some simple checks. Errors are logged to system.log with logger(), and a notification is sent to Notification Center. Small Update: to improve syslog output. Updated workflow: Compare Finder Items in Kaleidoscope.

+1 for this. At the moment I'm using logger() or writing to tmp files for shell and log/display alert for osascript. Something coming in the future?
