Hi, I have seen several posts about inserting date/time and linking it to a hotkey trigger or short text.
However these all seem to be about using the system date/time information and formats - where we have little control over the date/time elements and their placement in the date/time string we want.
As someone who doesn't like the space character in my filenames I wish to be able to quick-enter a text string (mostly in the Finder Save dialog) of the current date/time in the specific format of...
YYYY-MM-DD_HH-NN-SS_
Where...
YYYY - current year in 4 digits.
MM = current month in 2 digits
DD = current date in 2 digits
HH = current hour in 24hour format, 2 digits
NN = current minutes of the hour in 2 digits
SS = current seconds of the minute in 2 digits
Also note the structure of the date/time string with the hyphens & underscore characters in place as separators.
Is there a way to have this level of control in Alfred and assign it to a shortcut key for easy insertion into any app/field as a plan text string?
In Windows I'm sure it can be done with AutoHotKey, but there doesn't seem to be an equivalent application for Macs with this level of control over the date/time elements within some sort of hot-key/text-snippet mechanism.
Thank you.
