This may sound a bit jumbled but........

I get pissed with text files EVERYWHERE, My idea is to have like a global hotkey that when pressed will grab the highlighted text in any window and put it into an SQLite DB, or an xml file. Does anyone else think this is a good idea? Which you can later access the text with a simple client and from there save > print > export to a PDF, other random crud.

I would like to hear peoples opinions, Would it be worth spending the time on, Do you think people other than myself will use it? Do you think its a stupid idea? any problems i may run into?

Thanks

kieran
