A quick little workflow for showing and hiding file extensions. The workflow works as a file action (one action for showing and one for hiding extensions) and as a keyboard shortcut (for toggling the visibility of the file extensions of the items selected in OS X). Download: Show/Hide File Extensions

For me it would be great to run a special File Action for "*.sublime-project" files just by pressing enter, without explicitly selecting a File Action using right-arrow or a workflow prefix. Description: 1. find a ".sublime-project" file using the normal fuzzy File Search 2. hit enter 3. run my custom sublime File Action / workflow Alfred can already move your custom File Actions to the top with "Sort action by last used per file type". An extra checkbox for implicitly executing the top-most action just by pressing enter is maybe enough to enable this feature. This is helpful when using Alfred as a cmd+tab complement to switch between open files and applications. Example: Switch to chrome: "chro...[enter]", then switch to a sublime project: "myproj...[enter]". (The latter would run my custom workflow.) Kind regards, Carl PS I have found a workaround by changing my "*.sublime-project" files in OSX to always open with a home-made application running some additional scripts when these files are opened.

I'm trying to make a workflow which when invoked by a hotkey will hide the extensions of the files currently selected in OS X but I'm not too sure how Alfred's "Selection in OS X" hotkey action panel works and there seems to be dearth of documentation about it. What exactly does this action panel pass to a script (e.g.: a string)? What is the normal way of receiving this input in a script (e.g.: with "{query}" or with something else)? Does this behaviour vary between different types of scripts (i.e.: bash, AppleScript etc.)? I set up a simple workflow and found that return "{query}" posted a notification as expected when run from the Run Script action panel (with all delimiters unchecked) but not when run from the Run NSApplescript action panel (with the alfred_script(q) wrapper). Why is this? Is there anything else I should know about the "Selection in OS X" hotkey action panel?
