You can use this script from LaunchBar, or on its own, to find a project quickly by typing a phrase or a few characters from its name.

LaunchBar: select the script in LaunchBar and tap the space bar to get a text field.

On its own: install the script in the OF toolbar, or in the OF script menu.
When the script is run, the user will be prompted to enter a part of the project name.

If there is only one match, the script will immediately switch the focus to the specified project. If there are several matches, the user is offered a list from which one or more choices can be made.

(Tip: for an alphabetic listing of all projects, just enter a percentage character %, or an underscore character _ on its own.

Wildcards generally: % can be used as a substitute for any number of characters in a project name, and _ can be used as a substitute for any single character.)

-- Ver 0.1 adds alphabetic sorting
-- Ver 0.2 defaults to opening a new window [this can be reset by editing pblnNewWin above to false]
-- Ver 0.3 brings OmniFocus to the front
-- Ver 0.4 fixes the handling of search strings and project names which contain double quotes
-- Ver 0.6 If no match found, dialog now offers to run an amended search or create a project
