New Draft

Description

Doctor Drafts allows you to create a new draft directly from a file using a custom Alfred file action. Select the file and select the “New Draft” action. A new draft will be created for each of the selected files in turn.

Notes

  • This file action is multi-file enabled. If you select multiple files, the files will each have a new draft created for them.

New Draft (Single)

Description

Doctor Drafts allows you to create a new draft directly from a set of files using a custom Alfred file action. Select the files and select the “New Draft (Single)” action. A single new draft will be created from the content of each of the selected files in turn.

Notes

  • This file action is multi-file enabled and is intended for use on multiple files.
    • It is equivalent to the “New Draft” file action when run on a single file except this action also adds a newline to the end of the draft.

Append to Draft

Description

Doctor Drafts allows you to add files to the end of an existing draft directly from a file using a custom Alfred file action. Select the file and select the “Append to Draft” action. You will then be prompted to search for and select the draft you want to append to. The draft will be appended to with the selected file content.

Notes

  • This file action is multi-file enabled. If you select multiple files, the files will each be appended to the draft.

    • The order of appending is based on the order of display in file managers.
      • This affects the order that Alfred receives the file paths to process.

  • The search for the draft to append to is a draft content search.

Description
