Usage

  • Type m in Alfred to list menu bar items for front most application.
  • You can filter menu items by name, or do a fuzzy search.
  • Alternatively, set a hotkey to trigger the workflow as well.

E.g

  • m new tab will match the menu item New Tab
  • m cw will match the menu item Close Window
