I love this forum because I can get a peek into how others think, and possibly find an adjustment to my workflow that is faster. Everyone just has to pick and choose which workflows work for them. Of course, not everyone will enjoy the same workflow. I highlight what I want to look up, click the Alfred on PopClip, left to get to the front and type "translate". Text Expander does not do the math for you, but this makes a nice workaround. I type in the number of memberships, highlight it all, click the Alfred extension on PopClip, and paste the answer in. The Text Expander macro fills in the amount with a multiplication symbol. For instance, I can make the selection a TaskPaper entry, or I could choose to translate it, reveal that text in the filename in the Finder (file manager), use the text as an address if it is suitable, replace the space between words with underscores, uppercase. I have a Text Expander macro for replying to people asking for group memberships. I believe missing in this discussion are the large amount of other capabilities that PopClip brings in the way of functionality. That was just a case example, but I do use it with Text Expander. If they’re not I just open Alfred and write them in.
That would be useful I think if the numbers are already written down. 2 + 2 and you want to know the total so instead of opening the calculator you highlight the text, send it to Alfred and Alfred calculates the result and puts it into the clipboard and then you paste it into something?
Calculations? You mean you have say text e.g. Turns out my paid ChatGPT account didn’t cover API calls I needed to add that separately. I’m having difficulty though understanding why I’d send something to Alfred. A PopClip extension for ChatGPT PopClip Extensions rdouma February 23, 2023, 1:38pm 12 Thanks nick, that helped.
