Just adding a (plumb) hotkey and a plumb script which interacts with the clipboard selection. For me it is capslock (bound to F13). The script uses sselp and some grep patterns. Then it works like this: select text using the mouse/keyboard. Then press the plumb key. Ofcourse you can make it as fancy as you want it to be. For me this works well enough. -- Kind regards, Hiltjo
