Alfred Workflow - New Terminal Window ==========================

How to use


Install the workflow and type one of the following keyword on Alfred:

General notes


  • Compatible with Alfred 2, 3 and 4
  • The new window is placed in the current desktop
  • Once the workflow has been imported, feel free to change the default keywords if you don't like them. For example you can have tw for the terminal instead of iTerm.
  • For high performances, the default iTerm profile will appear instantaneously, while the other will appear
after some milliseconds (because that requires to read the available iTerm profiles).
