    ...if you add Alfred to the macOS Security & Privacy prefs for allowing access to application data

     

    it would be cool if you could add "Alfred" permissions, but not "Alfred Workflows".

     

    Alfreds code is obviously fine, but the workflows (which also sometimes get updated automatically) are definitely not safe, as the developers are often just random anonymous people on the internet - who then have access to your Application Data.

  2. PS. what you don't see in these screenshots is that when there are larger file names, the file names are being truncated (making them indistinguishable), because half of the screen is filled with the preview...

     

    Since i don't use the previews, it would be really nice to be able to use all that space for the filenames :-)

  3. Hi, the Workflow is working for me so if it doesn't work for you guys i guess it probably means the daily limit of the 'Synonyms account in the workflow' has been reached. I logged in, and it currently says "daily quota 895 out of 1000".

     

    Anyway, you can solve this by applying for your own account here: http://www.synonyms.net/api.php

     

    After registering you will get an email with an ID and Token, you need to enter them in the workflow here:

  4. Thanks for your reply,

     

    i understand the workaround but it's not exactly... convenient since you'd have to manually add a path for every App.

    Also some Apps have the version number in the Path so it breaks when the App is updated.

     

    for example  /opt/homebrew-cask/Caskroom/iterm2/2.0

    1. Install HomeBrew 
    2. Install MacVim
    3. Run command 
      brew linkapps macvim
      in Terminal

    Now, you have a working MacVim in your /Applications folder. You can run it in Finder from /Applications/MacVim or from Spotlight Search.

     

    However, Alfred doesn't see it (i assume because of the symlink: /Applications/MacVim.app -> /usr/local/opt/macvim/MacVim.app ).

     

     

    Alfred 2.7.1

    OS X 10.10.3

     

     

  5. Can't choose my folder, but it is working.

    Would really love to be able to choose it...

     

    what folder, do you mean the folder where "tag" is located or the folder for the snippets?

     

    1. To change the folder where "tag" is located, in Alfred go to Workflows -> Snippets and right click it -> Show in Finder.

      Then open "search-snippets.sh" with a text editor and search and replace "/opt/local/bin/tag" to "tag".

       

    2. To change the path where the snippets are located, you have to change the paths in the Snippets workflow in here:  http://www.evanlovely.com/utilities/alfred/snippets/snippet-paths.png
    After I reinstalled the workflow, when I typed ?snip to create my first snippet, I just got the fallback searches.

     

    yea i had that also, just make sure you always have at least 1 snippet/text file in the snippets folder, then the problem is solved :-)
