Capturing information on phone/tablet creates files with other extensions than .txt

Hi, I don't know if you are still working on this package or not. I tried it out just now and it works nicely. However, it assumes that the notes you take on Android are saved in .txt files. When browsing on the Android device, using Firefox, "sharing" a page saves the information in a file with extension ".url". It might be useful to consider having a variable of file extensions to consider when refiling. Thanks, eric

I've updated the code to do what I suggest above. Contact me and I can send a patch if you wish.

Sorry for the delay. Been busy with work.

I am not entirely sure how to go about generating a pull request. Happy to do so if you give me some pointers.

In the meantime, please find attached the patch for the changes I suggest which I have been using for the past month very successfully.

Note that there are a couple of (message ...) lines you may wish to remove but their not very intrusive.

thanks, eric
