Results are always shown alongside your other keywords.\n- Multi-Selection of URLs to open.\n- Global Search Hotkey: Search for terms, open URLs, write mails, etc.\n- Add link to selected text: Turns selected text into a Markdown link. \n\n## Installation\n1. [➡️ Download the latest release of the workflow.](https://github.com/chrisgrieser/hyper-seek/releases/latest)\n2. Add this workflow as [fallback search](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/default-results/fallback-searches/).\n\n*An earlier version of this workflow required `ddgr`. However, `ddgr` is not required anymore.*\n\n__Auto-Update__  \nDue to the nature of this workflow, it is not going to be submitted to the Alfred Gallery. Therefore, the workflow includes its own auto-update function.\n\n## Usage\n\n### Inline results\nTyping anything in Alfred shows inline search results. You do not need to use a keyword. \n- \u003ckbd\u003e⏎\u003c/kbd\u003e: Search for the query term, or open result.\n- \u003ckbd\u003e⌥\u003c/kbd\u003e\u003ckbd\u003e⏎\u003c/kbd\u003e: Copy URL to clipboard. \n- \u003ckbd\u003e⌥\u003c/kbd\u003e (hold): Show full URL.\n- \u003ckbd\u003e⇧\u003c/kbd\u003e (hold): Show preview text of search result. \n\n\u003e [!NOTE]  \n\u003e In the [Alfred Advanced Settings](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/advanced/), set \u003ckbd\u003e⌃\u003c/kbd\u003e\u003ckbd\u003e⏎\u003c/kbd\u003e to `Action all visible results`. This allows you to open all search results at once. \n\n### Global search hotkey \nConfigure the [hotkey](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/triggers/hotkey/) to be able to search for any selection. The resulting action depends on the type of text selected:\n- file path → reveal file in Finder \n- directory path → open directory in Finder \n- URL → open in default browser \n- eMail → send eMail to that address in your default mail app \n- Some other text → search for selection \u0026 open first search result (`I'm feeling lucky`) \n\n### Add link to selection \nConfigure another [hotkey](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/workflows/triggers/hotkey/) to turn selected text into a Markdown link, with the URL of the first search result for that text as URL of the Markdown link. This feature is essentially a simplified version of [Brett Terpstra's SearchLink](https://brettterpstra.com/projects/searchlink/). \n\n## License\n- `ddgr` is included in this project and licensed under [GNU GPL v3](https://github.com/kometenstaub/ddgr/blob/main/LICENSE).\n- `Hyper Seek` is licensed under the [MIT License](https://github.com/chrisgrieser/hyper-seek/blob/main/LICENSE).\n\n## Credits\n\u003c!-- vale Google.FirstPerson = NO --\u003e\n**About Me**  \nIn my day job, I am a sociologist studying the social mechanisms underlying the digital economy.
