Oh I see, thanks.  I was hoping it would (and thinking that logically it should) be a matter of granting an app permission to access Mail but no such luck. 

HoudahSpot has added a Mail plug-in that lets it search Mail when Mail is running - in Big Sur at least, not sure about Catalina - @Vero do you expect something similar in Alfred's future?

This is the most comprehensive article I’ve seen on the topic:

I've had no problems on my M1 MBP.

You just need to find command-line utilities to call for these tasks (LAME, sox , ImageMagick, VLC, textutil, etc.) and then stick the commands into file actions.  There are workflows here but they are oldish e.g.

 But the approach would be the same.

I got my 1.0 license 9 years and a few weeks ago.  Not sure how long I was in the beta before then.

You can just do this with the .json files in Alfred.alfredpreferences/snippets .  Folders there are groups in Alfred.  

I haven't touched this in years but here is how I got my TE snippets into MacOS:

https://github.com/derickfay/snipcon-OSX

You could use Hazel as I do here

 but have it output the .plists and import them 

see these examples:

https://github.com/derickfay/import-alfred-snippets

Here's what your log should show:

It looks like you're passing the file name as the query - is that what you're trying to do?  I had thought you were adding separate files but not using the workflow to select among them.  

Here's what my script filters look like:

I've added several with unique keywords for each and different csv files in the command above.

You just need to move that line down to below import sys - that error is occurring because sys hasn't been loaded yet.

Everything else stays the same.  (Sorry about my sloppy python!)

I tried to post the code here but got a server error so it's at https://github.com/derickfay/fuzzylist/blob/master/fuzzylist-mf.py

lf you have the Alfred power pack, you can download the workflow above - then you’ll need to set the keystroke to trigger it. See 

https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/triggers/hotkey/

something like this should work - basically there are two versions of the file and Alfred calls a shell script to copy one or the other into a third active file.  I found that was easier than trying to parse file contents.

Why wouldn’t you put them all in one workflow per service?  Alternately use BBEdit or the like and do a multifile search of the plists?

it looks like you had this issue before - have you tried rebuilding launch services so markdown files get the correct uti assigned?

This is already easily done with snippet triggers.

Yeah I subsequently tried the demo & it works for me.

Here's the output - looks fine to me.

[10:16:47.624] ERROR: BibDesk Search[Script Filter] JSON error: JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.

I have an old unsupported 3rd party script filter that outputs Alfred XML & I don't have time or knowledge to rewrite the php to output JSON.  This was working fine until recently it started throwing the following error:

[10:16:47.624] ERROR: BibDesk Search[Script Filter] JSON error: JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.

It seems Alfred has stopped recognizing the old deprecated XML.  Is there a way to force a script filter to still use the legacy XML processor instead?

https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/inputs/script-filter/xml/ for background. 

Last I checked you could only style large type - see 

Yes, you can use a snippet trigger.  Here's an example:

& the docs here:

https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/triggers/snippet/

& an easy fix for a potential issue:

That’s how the Case Converter works.

Here’s an existing workflow that allows both keyword (to script filter) and triggers:

Catalina flags this as unable to check for malware. Same with the latest version from GitHub.  Contains an unsigned binary.
