Fixes

Improved "Search on Web" experience

The "Search on Google" action has been renamed to "Search on Web" for better clarity, particular if you change the preferred search engine in the workflow object. The function also works more consistently across the different workflow keywords, even playplaylist. The action is still triggered via the Control modifier.

Housekeeping

Cleaned up workflow objects

The entire workflow has been rewired to utilize Alfred's External Triggers feature, which eliminates the tangled mess of connections between the various workflow objects. This means Play Song v9.2 is significantly more maintainable and easier to tweak (if you are the adventurous type)!

https://github.com/caleb531/play-song - v9.1.0

Improved the performance of the various search commands (play*) such that a search for the latest-typed query no longer needs to wait for previous searches (for intermediate queries) to finish loading

https://github.com/caleb531/play-song - v7.0.2

Fix bug where some non-Apple Music songs were missing artwork
- The original algorithm assumed that the file extension of every artwork image was always jpeg. However, some songs (which I did not download from Apple Music, coincidentally) happened to have png artwork, and so the algorithm would fail to return the correct artwork path for those songs.

Play Song v5 is a major release with new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements.
