Renaming is for style, not for errors. Names should match within and across both code and INI file. Myself, I would rework the plugin. It should use arrays, not individual variables. An array of tuples might work well: (browser name, browser command, menu entry enabled/disabled). Arrays would shorte...

Open URL plugin needs entires for Brave Browser (normal and --incognito). Linux invocation is "brave-browser". I tried Tool 1 and 2 slots. These tools are not actually invoked (see function "on_click_link"). I had to edit the code. Rename "opt_tool1" to "opt_tool_1...

FIFOs? first in first out? this is the temp file created by uniqInstance code. I just used 'file' to identify it. I will look at the uniqInstance code later. $ file cudatext_unique_myuser_cudatext.0 cudatext_unique_myuser_cudatext.0: fifo (named pipe) it is OK to create this temp-file in temp-dir -...

FIFOs probably belong in "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/cudatext" on Linux.

Folders and files currently scattered across $TMP include "cudatext" and "cudatext_addon_man" directries, and the FIFO "tuniqueinstance_someone_cudatext.0" and "cudatext_download.html" when the user checks for app updates. I wish CudaText (or FreePascal?) woul...

I added macro {SelectionAsTemp}. plugin is updated. please test it, my test with "echo {SelectionAsTemp}" (echo is program on linux) works ok. Yes it works, thank you. I often work with unsaved documents, so the function text2temp in py/cuda_exttools/cd_exttools.py created a file called &...

Python's subprocess module can feed an external process stdin. This tutorial uses a dummy process that prints stdin. Could this technique somehow use {SelectedText} without making a temp file? import subprocess import sys result = subprocess.run( [sys.executable, "-c", "import sys; pr...

It works for multi-line. The whole purpose was to reflow line breaks. As an experiment it shows a possibility, but is not elegant. {SelectedTextAsStdIn} would be nice, or rather, a full GUI field group as exists for StdOut. I hope future versions of CudaText will have such choices! Thanks.

INI does not specify.
TOML does.

Thank you for the very quick update!
