    Great workflow, but the QL app did not work (perhaps it only works for 10.8 ?), so I replaced it by qlmanage -p '{query}‘, and since the quick-look window is sometimes small, I added a script with a cmd trigger that uses "open" instead of quick-look

    I'd be interested in a file action that can resize in several format as an Alfred file action (say: it keeps the same aspect ratio, but has a max of 800x600, 1600x1200 etc, or even just scale x0.5 x0.25 etc)

    Okay, but why does it have to send a key sequence? doesn't it use an other mean to append to a file?
  4. oulipo
    Awesome, but there is a small bug: if you append to journal using shift and you hold shift down after pressing enter, it sends some keys to the app (probably a cmd+shift+C) -- although I guess it does not have to do that to append to the journal?

    Awesome workflow, what would be great would be an "Autosort" option using user defined rules that (rather than deleting the file) would put the file in a particular folder depending on its extension (.pdf / .mp3 / etc. )

    Here is what happens: and then

    I think this could work actually (from http://www.macworld.com/article/2038095/5-automator-workflows-everyone-should-have.html): on run {input, parameters} set theWordCount to count words of (input as string) display dialog (theWordCount & " words in the selected text." as string) end run

    Okay, thanks for the answer However, in this case it is not directly the utility I use, but rather an utility (ffmpeg) used by the utility (youtube-dl) I use. Is there a way to load the user's default $PATH variable when launching Alfred script? (it seems that the PATH must not be the correct one since it had not found `ffmpeg`

    This is an awesome workflow! One question though, it seems that I can only choose a directory that is immediately in my home dir, would it be difficult to extend it so I can choose eg. Dropbox/Public ? (right now if I type this, it tells "Search google for dropbox/public" )

    I encountered a bug in one of my workflow documented here http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/2431-weird-behavior-of-youtube-dl that is due to the fact that `youtube-dl` would not find `ffmpeg` in the PATH when launched from Alfred, I fixed that with a hacky `export PATH=/usr/local/bin/:$PATH` at the start of the workflow, but how would one generally go about doing that in a more robust way ?
  11. oulipo
    This was indeed the problem and I fixed it by adding export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH at the beginning of the script to allow it to find `ffmpeg`, but this is some hack is there a better solution?
  12. oulipo
    I've done it again in the shell and it works, I'm starting to believe that youtube-dl has not the same behavior when launching from the Alfred bash, perhaps because the youtube-dl script relies on ffmpeg and it does not find it in the PATH when launched from Alfred? How could I force this?

    Perhaps this depends on the particular video that you are trying to download, or perhaps there was a problem with the download? I was trying with and it was working correctly in bash but indeed it would be nice that the workflow allows for errors to filter through to the Grunt notifications, do you know how this could be done?
  15. oulipo
    I slightly modified a youtube-dl workflow to add an action to download the audio, I used this script url="{query}" if [ -z $url ] then echo "No url provided" else /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format=mp3 -f 18 -o "$HOME/Desktop/%(title)s.%(ext)s" "{query}" echo "Completed" fi for some reason, if I type an equivalent command in a shell, this will result in an audio named "My Video.mp3" on my desktop, but if I use the Alfred Workflow, this will result in a video named "My Video.mp4" (and not only the audio) Someone sees where there might be a problem? As a reference https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/70378973/Youtube%20Download.alfredworkflow

    This is a great workflow, I was wondering though: is there a way to download only the audio from youtube, without first downloading the whole video & then discarding it?
  17. oulipo
    Yes, I know this (I actually use the Alfred2 screenshot workflow), the thing is: sometimes I took a clipboard screenshot, and I realize I have to send it to someone, so I have to open an image app & paste it, whereas as "Save clipboard as file" workflow would make it a snap (although I reckon this is something of a rarified occurence

    Thanks for the updated link, I meant, I'd love to be able to quickly save an image that I have in the clipboard (typically, I just did a screenshot to the clipboard, and I now have to create a file for some reason)
  19. oulipo
    Great workflow! Do you think it would be hard to autodetect whether the clipboard content is an image or a text to save it accordingly?
  20. oulipo
    I'd like to create a workflow where I can quickly view a thumbnail of all the photos from my iPhone using bluetooth or USB (possibly by scripting Image Capture), and choose one, that would then get copied to the clipboard. How would you approach that workflow?
  21. oulipo
    Thank you!

    I've tried to no avail to create a workflow using AppleScript that counts the number of words in the selection of the topmost window, I'd like it to work using a keyword rather than a hotkey in order not to clutter my hotkey, someone knows if this is possible? Or is it only feasible to count the number of words of the current clipboard for instance? (I'd rather have a script that counts the words without having to copy to clipboard)
