There's no technical barrier to just grabbing the window's current  
(possibly unsaved) text from a plugin. In fact, it would probably be  
easier. Then again, I have no idea what a tmCommand is...

I'm looking into this, but at the moment, I'm thinking a plugin is  
more appropriate than a separate, pseudo-app. But I welcome input  
from anyone who knows more.
