The former - just hangs and has to be killed

Found the source of the issue: I tried running the ThingsWorkflow binary directly from a terminal window - I get no feedback at all

Yes - I'm running with Dropbox Sync also, though I tried copying the binary outside of Dropbox and runningfrom there - no change

Afraid I get nothing in the log. If I enter "Things Test Task" and press enter - nothing; Alfred window just stays open, no action and no log content

Hmm for some reason the applescript isn't working for me. I use the "Things" keyword and the dialog "Things Tasks" appears but it isn't populate with my existing tasks / projects.

Using Things 2.1.1 and Alfred 2.0.2.

Seeing the same - get no feedback at all from this workflow, neither can I create tasks

No - but your frequently used actions will migrate to the top of the actions list, so you should see add to faves at the top if you try adding another folder like this:

I am having issues adding folders. I can add files and documents but when I navigate to a folder and press right arrow on the folder it just shows me the contents of that folder. No option to add to faves exists. Anyone help? Thanks

You have the (non-default) option to use left & right arrows for folder navigation enabled in preferences:

Instead press "Fn" when the folder is highlighted for actions

Hi Andrew - bumping this idea as you suggested

Use Ctrl+Enter to remove

FYI: Also can add public.volume type to enable network shares to be favourites - works well on my automounted NFS shares

Or hotkey "cmd+," - default for accessing any Mac App preferences

Many thanks to Clinton for building this - works exactly as hoped

Fantastic! Yes it does exactly as requested. Much appreciated.

ta da!!

Seems to be similar issue that causes apps to be listed multiple times in the "Open with..." menu - fixed by:

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user

Thanks again for the efforts - your suggestion works with text files, but not binaries, I guess due to the limitations of pbcopy

I'm wondering if the capability could be achieved via apple script, perhaps somehow calling finder to copy the files to the clipboard? 

Hi,

Just checking out some Applescript and noticed that Alfred appears to have installed its dictionary many times. Guess this isn't intended?

Like the suggestion, but doesn't pbcopy / pbpaste only work with text files? 

That said, I tried your suggestion using a workflow with a file action passing arguments to a script of: cat "{query}" | pbcopy

Didn't work with text or other files

Workflow I tried is here: http://sphardy.net/FsKu

Not if I want to past them into another app

Example: I've been consolidating a lot of data files into Evernote notebooks together with various text notes etc. Lots of copy & pasting from various sources that I could do almost entirely without resorting to mouse or trackpad if this option was supported

Yes, but Clipboard is not a destination I can copy to

Hi - I'm looking for an option to copy the actual file(s). It appears for now that Alfred can only copy the file path to the clipboard

FYI: Just posted an update that corrects an occasional issue with double-quotes in the markdown

Hi

When adding files to the file buffer is it possible to copy the files to the clipboard so that I can then paste them into another application?

thanks

Hi - I wanted to try to make at least one significant contribution to the beta, so here's a workflow that allows you to send selected markdown formatted text to Evernote via a hotkey.

Not all my own work I'm sorry to say, but a flow I've wanted for a while and only investigated properly recently. (I spend a lot of time taking notes and writing up reports. Markdown support in Evernote would be ideal, but until then - Alfred comes to the rescue)

It requires the installation of multimarkdown - available here: http://fletcherpenney.net/multimarkdown

It reuses a script available here: http://nsuserview.kopischke.net/post/6223792409/i-can-has-some-markdown

Evernote note title, notebook and tags can all be specified via markdown metadata. All other text is then imported to Evernote as HTML. 

Workflow available to download here: http://d.pr/f/2pUe

Updated: Corrected issue with non-escaped double quotes

PHP version appears to work for me also - no sqlite errors either

Hi judas,

 

thanks for your feedback. I'll take this on board when I update it (which should probably be fairly soon as I've written a version that prompts for the API key rather than expecting the user to edit the actual script, which I plan to release soon.)  Good to see you've got a workaround for now though.

 

Any other characters I should allow through? Probably * and #, now that I think about it. 

 

Cheers,

C
