###Activate Ariafred

You can set hotkey to activate Ariafred after installing it, my personal recommendation is Command + Shift + A, you can also type keyword aria in Alfred to activate Ariafred

###Filter by query

1. Type keywords to filter by task name
2. Type active / done / paused / pending / error to filter by status
3. You can filter by status and task name simultaneously:

2. Press Enter on Active / Waiting / Stopped to view tasks in corresponding status
3. Press Enter on Download / Upload to go to speed limit settings

###Add a task

Type add plus the url then press Enter, HTTP/FTP/SFTP/Magnet links are supported.

It is recommended that you add a default download path in your aria2.conf, take it as an example: dir=/foo/bar, tasks added by Ariafred will be downloaded to this path.

###Set RPC

1. The default RPC address Ariafred connects to is http://localhost:6800/rpc, change via typing rpc plus your own RPC address then press Enter. FYI, Ariafred uses xml-rpc instead of json-rpc that some WebUI uses for Aria2, so make sure your RPC address end with /rpc but not /jsonrpc.
2. The default rpc-secret Ariafred uses is empty, if you have configured your own rpc-secret in your aria2.conf you should set the secret by typing secret plus your own rpc-secret then press Enter

###Start/Quit Aria2

1. Ariafred will prompt you to start Aria2 or change RPC address if it fails to connect to Aria2, press Enter on starting aria2 to try launching Aria2
2. Type quit to quit Aria2
