George's idea seemed useful, but adding it to the existing Focus On script was too slow. So, I created a new script "Focus on Folder" that works essentially like the existing one described above, but only searches folder names.
One other difference: the text entered for the search must be appear as contiguous characters in the folder name. That is, a search for “UFO” would match “Documented UFO sightings” but would not match “Founded Ungulates For Obama”. Without a built-in
complete command for folder names anything but exact substring matching is too slow.
Here's the new script. Install it and use it like the other one, but call it something different so you can use both scripts.
Code:
(*
This script lets you use LaunchBar to open a new OmniFocus window focused on
a folder that matches a given string.
