Btw, a colleague of mine did his "link" with something called HotKeys (I think) in windows. He defined a macro for pasting the selected text in his editor directly in the matlab window. No idea, though, how to make this in os x.
Sounds like a job for… Applescript UI Scripting.
I have a handy command that takes the current selection and pastes it into the terminal. (not directly attached since it is so incredibly dangerous)
Input: Selection or Document Output: Tooltip
pbcopy osascript -e 'tell application "Terminal" to activate' \ -e 'tell application "System Events"' \ -e 'tell application process "terminal"' \ -e 'delay 0.1' -e 'keystroke "k" using command down' \ -e 'keystroke "v" using command down' \ -e 'end tell' \ -e 'end tell' \ -e 'tell application "TextMate" to activate' echo "Selection Sent to Terminal"
That might be convertible for whatever. I made one similar for doing Second Life code. (I have a whole Second life bundle, if anyone is interested.)
