Snippet Triggers with parameter

[cdpath]

Is it possible that while I type

\\define useful <enter>

 

Alfred pass the parameter (useful in this case) to the workflow?

Not as part of the snippet, no. Use a Keyword element to enter the parameter after the Snippet Trigger fires.

To expand @deanishe suggestion, there's a "Snippet Triggers - Getting Started" example in Alfred that would show you some ways to do what you want (especially the "hellomsg" snippet). Look into "Alfred Preferences -> Workflows -> [+] -> Getting Started -> Snippet Triggers".

Thanks! Those built-in examples are really useful. I'll go through them all.
