Show the diff of the last 2 items in clipboard history using VSCode. This relies on [Alfred](https://www.alfredapp.com/) workflows to automate the process.
# How To Use
1. Setup Visual Studio Code for terminal.
1. Open Visual Studio Code
2. CMD + SHIFT + P (Opens Command Palette)
3. Search and run "Install 'code' command in PATH"
2. Download the latest `VSCodeDiff.alfredworkflow` file from the [release page](https://github.com/logicxd/alfred-vscodediff/releases). Then just double click it to let Alfred install the workflow.
3. Enable Clipboard History in AlfredNow you have VSCodeDiff enabled!
# How It Works

VSCode provides a way to compares files via terminal with the command `code --diff `. So we create 2 temporary files inside Alfred's cache and use those to compare.
