I am sorry if i am being a pain guys. Matthew's adivce was great I
was able to add any commands i wished. The thing is doesn't work
properly, meaning the selection never gets send to the command.
eg: I select Documents and I send it to ls. Instead of listing the
Documents directory, it lists the current directory, ~ in this
case. I even tried full path. It doesn't work for grep command
either. What am I doing wrong this time?


The selection is not made part of the command, it is sent to the 
standard input of the selection, and the standard output is pasted in 
the buffer in place of the selection. See
