Free tText plugins: Do Shell & Speak2Me

Obleo sent along a couple of nice tText plugins for us all.

1. Do Shell

Click here to download:
Do Shell Command .rev (9 KB)

For example, if you type cal (the calender), select it and then select Do Shell from the Plugins menu, you get a calender of the current month in a new tab. You can also add a month and year as I did below.

Here are the results (note use of Courier for alignment):

If you type man cal, you get the man page (manual) for cal. You can also type cal -h or cal -help to get the same result.
Some command line terms give extra info not found in the man with help or ones without man pages give more info. Also note, this plugin is un-tested but should work if com. command is on Windows.
2. Speak2Me

Click here to download:
Speak2Me.rev (9 KB)

Obleo was kind enough to send along a PDF for this great little plugin.

To use these stacks as tText plugins:
  • Open Plugin Manager from Plugins menu.
  • Choose Existing radio button.
  • Click Add and then choose the plugin of your choice

Format Script plugin for tText

Click here to download:
Format Script.rev (9 KB)

This tText plugin is designed to format Rev scripts into HTML for display in a web page.

To install:

  1. Download the "Format Script.rev" file. 
  2. Start tText and select "Plugin Manager" from the Plugins menu. 
  3. Select the last line in the list. 
  4. Click the "Existing" radio button. 
  5. Click the "Add" button and select the "Format Script.rev" file you just downloaded. 

It will get added to the list and will be available for use when you close the Plugin Manager.

To use:

  1. Copy some script from your script editor. 
  2. Go back to tText, place the insertion cursor where you want the script to go, and select "Format Script" from the Plugins menu. 
  3. The script in your clipboard will be formatted into HTML and inserted into your tText document. 

This is great for adding scripts to blog posts or web pages. For further styling, configure the code & pre tags in your style sheet as the formatting will use both of those tags.

Have fun,

Change Case plugin for tText

Click here to download:
Change Case.rev (7 KB)

This is my first tText plugin :-)

It's very simple - it just changes the case of the selected text to all upper case or to all lower case, so if you don't get the result you want, just do it again.

To install:

  1. Download the "Change Case.rev" file. 
  2. Start tText and select "Plugin Manager" from the Plugins menu. 
  3. Select the last line in the list. 
  4. Click the "Existing" radio button. 
  5. Click the "Add" button and select the "Change Case.rev" file you just downloaded. 

It will get added to the list and will be available for use when you close the Plugin Manager.

To use:

  1. Select text in tText.
  2. Select Change Case from Plugins Menu.
If the first char you have selected is upper case, then all other chars in the selection will become upper case. Likewise, if the first char you have selected is lower case, then all subsequent chars in the selected text will become lower case.
NOTE: Undo works. You can cmd+z to get back your previous text.

Have fun,

Sarah Reichelt
