giovanni Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 (edited) Alfred's alphabet 🔤 A dictionary of your Alfred shortcuts Download Background You can launch Alfred Workflows using single letters (either alone, or with a prefix, or as hotkeys with modifiers). Specifically: 1. single-letter keyword (e.g. m used for m query) 2. prefix + single letter keyword (e.g. k used with a prefix (!, -> !k) to search your Kindle library using alfred-kindle) 3. hotkey (a letter plus one or more of the modifier keys: Shift (⇧) Control (^) Option (⌥) Command (⌘) Alfred's Alphabet allows to review single-letter shortcuts in a single dictionary application, to check which letters are used, which are available, and which ones are conflicting with system-wide shortcuts. Browsing Alfred's Alphabet - launch with keyword (default: aalpha), or custom hotkey - scroll results or enter a single letter to filter. The first output is an overview with one circle per keyword/hotkey. - ⚪: unused prefix/hotkey modifier - 🟠: prefix/hotkey modifier used for Alfred Workflow - 🔴: used prefix/hotkey modifier, conflicting with one of the custom/system-wide shortcuts - Circles are grouped in blocks as follows: 1. no prefix (i.e. single-letter keyword) 2. prefix block (if any): if any letter prefixes have been entered in Workflow configuration, they will be represented in this block (one circle per prefix) 3. 1-key modifier keys in this order (block of 4): shift, control, option, command 4. 2-key modifier keys: - block of 3: sht-ctl, sht-opt, `sht-cmd - block of 2: ctl-opt, ctl-cmd - block of 1: opt-cmd 5. 3-key modifier keys (block of 3): sht-ctl-opt, sht-ctl-cmd, ctl-opt-cmd, 6. 4-key modifier (block of 1): sht-ctl-opt-cmd - ctrl-enter ^↩️ will show the overview in large font - enter ↩️ will list the workflows using that letter - further pressing enter ↩️ will open the config page of the corresponding Workflow. Saving custom hotkeys By entering :aalpha you can open a csv file with custom hotkeys. Enter your own, using for the modifier key one of the abbreviations listed above. A few examples are listed as demo in the default file. Edited June 4 by giovanni universe, cands, 40-02 and 2 others 5 Link to comment
40-02 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Wow! That is a pretty cool workflow in my opinion! I really like the interface solution with circles! Is it possible to not show disabled workflows? It seems like it now shows all the shortcuts. Also, in my case `:aalpha` only gives the table with only 4 rows. What do the custom hotkeys mean? Are those shortcuts modified from the defaults? Edited July 16, 2023 by 40-02 Link to comment

I added this option. 9 hours ago, 40-02 said: What do the custom hotkeys mean? Are those shortcuts modified from the defaults? The idea was for the user to add rows with their shortcuts from other applications etc. The ideal solution would be that the Workflow gets all the system keyboard shortcuts and shows them in the file, but I couldn't find a way to do that. 40-02 1 Link to comment

Wow! I was dreaming about that! I have also researched how to collect all the global shortcuts several times already, but I have had no luck. Though, I think I will continue my search. I will let you know if I find the solution. TomBenz 1 Link to comment

TomBenz Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 @giovanni I am using version 0.2 of this workflow on macOS Sonoma 14.4.1. This used to work earlier to get list of hotkeys used but now I am getting error below : [15:15:24.707] Alfred Alphabet[Keyword] Processing complete [15:15:24.709] Alfred Alphabet[Keyword] Passing output '' to Run Script [15:15:34.824] Alfred Alphabet[Script Filter] Queuing argument '(null)' [15:15:35.350] Alfred Alphabet[Script Filter] Script with argv '(null)' finished [15:15:35.357] ERROR: Alfred Alphabet[Script Filter] Code 1: kw_trigger: ===pref value absent==, using default cs key: ===pref value absent==, using default pdfsplit skipping Add to calendar (disabled) Pls check if this is something in my config or workflow need an update.

giovanni Posted June 4 Author Share Posted June 4 @TomBenz these don't look like errors, is there anything else in the debugger? Link to comment
