Emne: BASH Variable for Selection or Clipboard
I've grown obsessively fond of festival and my local/bin can prove it. My clock speaks to me, my mail speaks to me, my laptop lid speaks to me, my battery speaks to me; I'm out of control. Now, I want to be able to highlight some text and map a key sequence that pipes the selected text through /usr/bin/festival --tts.

I was curious if there is an easy way to reference the current selection, such as a bash variable. Is this an object I can reference? Seems like selections are remembered forever when I accidently middle-click...
