  1. When I was a regular Vim user I was delighted to have the Edit With worklow to enable me to use it in other apps. I have been away from Vim for a while now and am just getting back.

     

    Edit With seems not to be working for me. It may be that I am not remembering how to use it. My recollection was that by typing in the Edit With hotkey while in another app Vim would be opened, I composed my text, then pasted back with the hotkey for that. 

     

    Alternatively Edit With is no longer working. I have Alfred 4.6.1 and macOS 11.6.2. Should it work?

     

    Thank you.

      Did you change the original hotkey (control+option+command+e)?

       

      Did you try the keyword "edit with" within Alfred?

       

      Let me know...

       

      Finally, make sure to follow the steps below:

       

      1. in the initial application optionally select some text
      2. bring Alfred and type the keyword editwith
      3. now select your text editor: just start typing to find it and hit return key
      4. the editor will be opened with the text you have selected initially or blank if there was
      no text initially
      5. after writing, bring Alfred and type the keyword pasteback (the workflow will select
      the text automatically)
      6. the previous application will be displayed and the text will be pasted back

  3. Hi Carlos. I was attracted to Alfred by your Edit With workflow. I am an old QuickCursor user, greatly miss it, and was delighted to discover your Alfred workflow alternative. I discovered a thread on the forums in which one writer describes using "ew" and "pbew" as alternatives to your "edit with" and "fastback" key words. If I type "ew" I am offered Google, Amazon, and Wikipedia searches for "ew". Is it possible to change the default key word...

      It seems the workflow is not working for you.

      Can you please tell me your OS X version?

      In addition, please use the workflow forum post because it is easier for me to follow.

      Thank you.

  4. Hi Carlos! I was told to ask you for help regarding a applescript/workflow I'm trying to get going. We have a large collection of product images and are frequently sent Excel spreadsheets listing which images are required to be gathered to be uploaded to our site. Our image files are located on different servers and have a 13 digit name with an _I1 followed by it, i.e. 9781520560331_I1. The images are usually jpegs or tif. I wanted to run a script on Auomator to look at the image...

      I’m still on vacation. I’m not sure I can help you regarding such specific workflow due the lack of time lately. I use some of them (like Evernote) and share here.

  5. Carlos Hello , would you be interested in making a few alfred workflows for me.. basic things. (very basic) would like to be able to search my box.com account.. (this would be paid work)

      I’m still on vacation. I saw your comment today. I don’t use box.com but if I find it useful I may try to make a workflow (no cost).
