  1. I just love the tasty Chocolat app for coding and other text editing tasks on the Mac. I created this Alfred workflow (see attachment below) to open Chocolat app project bookmarks.

     

    To Create a project bookmark, open a folder in Chocolat and select "Save Project Bookmark..." from the "File" menu. This saves a tiny .chproj file which tracks info about your project.

     

    Once you install the Alfred workflow, you can use it by calling Alfred up and typing "chocp". "chocp *" will return all project bookmarks. You can also type other file name partials with wildcards included as needed. Open a project by selecting from the list of choices and pressing return. You will then see all of your files open nicely in Chocolat. I like using project bookmarks with this workflow because I have limited the search scope of this workflow to only return .chproj files. This just makes it quicker and easier to open the right project more quickly.

  2. I really enjoyed this Alfred extension for Alfred 1.x.  The extension compares files/folders selected with Alfred in the beautiful [Kaleidoscope app](http://www.kaleidoscopeapp.com/). I missed this functionality in Alfred 2 and decided to setup the same file action as an Alfred workflow.

     

    Download it here.

     

    Thanks to Jay Freestone, author of the "Stale Coffee" blog, for creating the original extension.
