I love the Alfred app for my mac, and I'm sure a lot of you do too.

However, I was fiddling around and couldn't figure out how to make my own commands for Alfred, for example, "cnn" to open "cnn.com" in firefox.

Alternatively, you can search for bookmarks in safari in Alfred. Is there a script to search your firefox bookmarks as well?

Cheers.

Have you tred going to Features --> Custom searches? Unfortunately Alfred only goes through Safari bookmarks. What you can do is import your Firefox bookmarks to Safari, however.
 
Custom searches only works for websites, if I want to search inside them.

Exporting my bookmarks sounds like a good idea though. Thanks!
