Hey. I tinkered together a snippet/text-expander workflow I like. It is simple and just what I want. One thing could make it better though, to see the file contents in the window.
This is the current workflow.
The first thing is a File filter which points to:
1) a bash script which is simply copying the file contents like this: cat {query} | pbcopy
2) a copy to frontmost app
And that's it. Work perfectly for me, it searches my directory for files and copies whatever I want into the app I am using.
I would, however, like to actually see what I am copying before I do it, right now I rely on the info I get from the filenames. Example: http://imgur.com/CMdvNE9
I would like to have it like the Alfred snippet manage like this: http://imgur.com/wvuSVW7
I don't want to use the Alfred snippet manager because I use the snippets (.txt files) in other applications, so I want as much as possible to be "app agnostic"
So is this possible?
