#ALFRED OR LAUNCHBAR FOR MAC OS X#

Jay Miller has created an Alfred action for use with Bunch. Anyway, for now, I have decided to make Alfred the primary launcher ( + Space) and LB secondary (running in the background) just for its Instant Send. My guess is that 80 of Alfred users do not know what they are missing if they have not experienced LBs Insant Send. See “Better Bunch for LaunchBar” for the latest changes to the Action. I am a LaunchBar user myself and use its Instant Send heavily. If you bring up the Bunches action and press Space, you can type or paste raw Bunch commands to be executed. The menu also contains the ability to switch your opening preference between “Open” and “Toggle.” This will affect your Bunch preferences directly. Holding modifier keys when opening the action changes the default methods for that run: Each Bunch in the menu will also have a submenu you can access by pressing the right arrow which contains the actions (open, close, toggle) that aren’t the default action. While you can actually search your OmniFocus projects nicely through Spotlight they show up a bit cryptic, if at all, in application launchers like Alfred. If you have “Toggle Bunches” enabled, selecting a Bunch from the list will toggle it (quitting apps if it’s already been opened), otherwise it will simply open the Bunch. But it can do so much more, and a lot of it is more intuitive than Ive found in other applications. Its fast, which is good, but it doesnt index Spotlight metadata and for simple operations can suffer from some of what you mention. Selecting the Bunch action in LaunchBar and pressing return will list your available Bunches. But for me, the raw power of Alfred more than makes up for it. Download, unzip it, then double click the unzipped action to install. You can also create integrations with Keyboard Maestro or BetterTouchTool to fit other workflows.ĭownload the Bunches Action for LaunchBar
