where do the scripts run from?

[mareoraft]

I have a workflow in Alfred which writes a new text file.

 

RUN SCRIPT (/usr/bin/perl)

open( FILE, '>raischedule.txt' );
print "hello!;
close( FILE );

Now, if I had made a file program.pl that contained this code, and I ran it from the terminal, the file raischedule.txt would be created in the same folder that program.pl was in.  But in Alfred, this does not occur.  So where is it?

Alfred runs scripts from their respective workflow folder. You can view the workflow folder for a specific workflow by right clicking on it in the Workflow list and selecting "Show in Finder".

Thanks!  And apparently Alfred does not search there because when I conducted the file search on my computer I could not find the file.  Anyways, really great software!!
