[TxMt] Feature request: Run commands on events

[Robert M.Zigweid]

+1 for hooks on events.

I posted recently about my modifications to the macro in Text 
Utilities.  There's a 'Strip trailing spaces' command that is based 
upon the selection.  I modified a copy of one to do the whole document 
and gave it a hot key.  It's not perfect (I hate that it leaves the 
whole document selected), but it's a work around for the moment.
