Global keyboard shortcut to create new note from clipboard

Open davidmasters opened this issue 12 years ago • 2 comments

The ability to select text from any document/web page/ wherever, then do a keyboard shortcut and take that text and open nvpy and create a new note from this text.

(Requested by Peter ME in Google Group forum)

For webpages, the URL should also be copied and included in the note.

I created a test version at https://github.com/swestdijk/nvpy which create a note from the clipboard. Taking the first 30 characters as the title. Shortcut == Control-p. This a simple copy action, so no url or other info will be in the note

I updated the code at https://github.com/swestdijk/nvpy. On Solaris and linux (ubuntu) only selecting text and hitting Ctrl-p in nvpy is enough, on windows Ctrl-C is still needed
