I position my laptop below my larger monitor, so it won't work for this case. Will be easy to fix, just mentioning in case there was a way to better identify the monitor to move the window to.

I am a heavy user of Amazon Web Services. I usually need to stop/start instances as I am developing or hacking at something, and often I need to get the IP address of a server so I can ssh into.
 
So I started a little project that uses python and boto.  It is not tested. I don't think you need anything other than the default python. 
 
If you're interested, give it a try and let me know if it works.

Example Usage:
 
Set the region you want to search:
    ec2 config region=us-west-2
 
Search for EC2 instances. It will search all properties of the EC2 instance. You can use a single keyword, or multiple keywords to refine the search.  The pubic IP address will go into your clipboard.
    ec2 find killroy running
 
Stop/Start Instances
 
    ec2 stop killroy
    ec2 start killroy

Curious if anyone has seen anything on worksflows for interacting with AWS?  For example, listing EC2 instances might be handle. I am often having to lookup public IPs for machines I spin up.
 
 

Thanks for the super clear instructions for getting the pre-release alfred and evernote.  This is my most used alfred workflow.

Sweet, perfect, first hit on google. Just what I wanted. Thanks.
