I created an with an executable that can do string manipulations on selected text.
I was able to use Listary as a way to interact with all my other text/coding-editors, using a self-made executable.
By pressing WIN+Z the toolbar pops-up and I can do text manipulation.
Example:

This lead me to the following questions:
QUESTION 1
Is it possible to extend the functionality of Listary to something like this:
Example:
Other Examples from the above site mentioned site:
It doesn’t have to full blown like those examples in the links above.
But would it be possible to implement this with minimal changes / coding from your side?
All it has to do is:
- create a custom menu and assign menu items (commands or launch application with parameter).
- be able to “attach” the custom menu to certain windows (notepad, MS word etc…)
I know that this is outside the listary scope at this moment, but I suspect you don’t have to make many changes to implement a minimal version?
(I could be very wrong here in my assumption, please forgive for that if that is the case.)
QUESTION 2
If question 1 is not possible, is it possible to have custom icons in the ‘toolbar’.
So it is easier to identify my own custom menu when it is placed right next to the ‘lightning’ icon.
(It may also be useful for other ‘custom commands’)
Thank you
