Hi,

Is there a way to get selected text in the current application and perform action with it.

I have a little window with one button which need to get selected text in the foreground application and launch a program using selected text .

I've written a service which works, but when I click on my little window, the services doesn't works because there is not selected text.

Have you an idea about that ?

Thanks a lot

Thierry
