The idea was to extend the 'run this command' action. So I can have:
C-n: netscape %s
and bbkeys will put the value of the current X selection where %s is.
What I see is another bbkeys command 'selection-command' which does basically
what 'command' does but also does the buffer read and string manip.
BTW, the bbkeysconfC does not allow one to add an exec command, only window
commands.
