I'm new here on the Alfred forums. I have been using Alfred starting with version 1.
My initial usage was restricted to launching applications and the like and is increasing of late. I've hit a bit of a roadblock, I'd like to figure out if I can do IDE-like searches, or in other words: searches to pull up files from project folders, or constrained by folder-scope.
The way I'm doing it right now is to explicitly list my project folder(s) in the search scope. (I've removed my home folder). I then trigger the folder to open in Alfred by "space" followed by "<file name>.groovy".
Is this something I can do better? Do the powerpack - workflows make this easier?
Would be great to hear from those who're doing this successfully.
