An Alfred workflow to rename the input string following the small-case-with-hyphen format

File Renamer (Mac Alfred Workflow)

This simple workflow lets you rename the string (i.e. filename) following the small-case-with-hyphen format, either in-place or via alfred box. Also, it strips some unnesessary symbols like colon.

E.G. change A guide: Comp Neuro.pdf to a-guide-comp-neuro.pdf.

You can easily change the python snippet to use other title formats if needed.

Two ways to use it:

1. hotkey - double-tapped ⇧: rename the contents in-place where the cursor is
2. trigger keyword - rn: rename the contents from clipboard by alfred box

Limitations

The input string doesn't support punctuation marks from non-ASCII languages (e.g. Chinese).
