Hiding terminal when using a terminal command

[shrop]

Hey there!

 

I have a workflow which uses a terminal commend. I don't want the terminal to open up on my Mac. How can I run scripts in the background?

 

Thanks!

I’m not sure that’s what he wants, as he said he already has a workflow. That is to run regular commands outside of them.

What exactly are you trying to do? Workflows have a “Run Script” option (two, actually, under Actions and Outputs), you don’t need to make the terminal open.

@Vitor: "Run Script" was exactly what I was looking for. I was using "Terminal Command" thinking that was the same kind of thing. This worked great. Thanks to you and @Ddyracer for getting back so quickly!

Shrop! What ups fella? Haven't heard from you in a while. Yeah Run Script is definitely what you need for this. If you ever have any more issues, let me know. I'd be glad to help ya set some stuff up

Right on David! Hey congrats on coming on board with the Alfred folks. Yeah, the run script stuff is working well. I am finally getting into A2. The new API is amazing!
