Twitter Advanced Search Keyboard Maestro Macro v2

I'll make this one quick.

Changelog

  • Much faster and more reliable
  • It no longer pastes each chunk individually into the address bar
  • Slightly rearranged user prompt based on the search parameters I use most
  • The "Any of these words" syntax actually works now
  • It no longer manually URL encodes the syntax with search and replace because KM can do that automatically, idiot
  • It's no longer a convoluted pile of shit(?)

Details

Clear out the values of all the variables.

Prompt for User Input.

Add or modify the syntax of each search parameter to match Twitter's Advanced Search scheme.

  1. Assemble all the variables into one long search query.

  2. URL encode the search query.

  3. Open the search URL with our search query.
