Hey all, Curious if there's any way to take content from something like a script filter and run it into another application as text. I'm imagining a case where I want to search for a particular thing on a webpage, the webpage outputs results, the results are all easily formatted by a script filter and the results are shown to Alfred and a user can act on those. Executing Alfred on the results would ideally then fill the text into an open text area, just like the clipboard history window does (or snippets). I suppose this could be done with an Applescript but a more official supported workflow feature would be pretty awesome. Thanks! Edit: appears I can use the Copy to Clipboard and paste to front most app for some of this. How about an option to not add to the clipboard then? I'm kind of trying to recreate snippets but make them smart and sharable amongst a team of people. The website and search results would be an internal site, parse the data, and then paste the snippet into the front most app, effectively creating a searchable snippet database.

I had a customer come over from your forums and they were having an issue where none of the items in Alfred were updating to be the same as their 1Password data. Turns out that the user had both the Mac App Store version and the Website version of 1Password installed, or at least setup. In this case, the user's Alfred was referencing the Mac App Store version, but they were using the website version of 1Password. So it was looking at the wrong bookmarks-default.json file. I'm not sure the best way to handle this in your app, but you might make it so that the user could choose which one they want to use if both files exist. It's possible that a user may be using this feature and has the beta version from our website installed and to register it they've used the MAS version (we read the MAS receipt and auto-register the beta). Let me know if I can do anything to help with this! You can email me kyle at the agilebits domain. Cheers! Kyle Swank AgileBits P.S. An email for reporting bugs like this would be most useful.
