Ahh great, thanks so much Tyler. Makes sense to just use the built in hotkey function!

I think my problem was I hadn't realised the keyword needed to include the "apps" bit. So I was creating keywords that opened apps called "design" whereas I actually needed "apps design" as the keyword.

Thanks so much to you both!

Thank you so much deanishe, that has worked perfectly! Finally got it set up. I wouldn't have had a clue about the script, so thank you for that.

Hello!

So I've used other people's workflows with Alfred for quite some time now (thank you to all you lovely developers that have created some - they're ace!) but I thought I'd have a bash at making a simple workflow myself, for launching a few apps.

The basic idea (or so I thought) was to do this...

• Have a hotkey that links to a keyword...
• Keyword has arguments that can be passed into it...
• Depending on the argument you put in, that will launch a specific set of apps (via the Launch Apps/Files action)

However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the keywords/arguments to link to the different apps - as far as I can tell, the one hotkey can link to one keyword, rather than several.

Is there any way for me to tie these keywords together from one input? So I could type "apps" and then "design" (so "apps design") and that launch my particular design apps, etc?

Thanks so much - I'm sure I'm overcomplicating it in my head and it's actually easier than I'm thinking...I hope! Anyway, appreciate any and all help. Thanks
