This is a quest I gave up on long back. The closest I got to succeeding was with Google Desktop Search, it worked most of the time, but there was some delay between loading a page and the content showing up in the search results, IIRC. I dropped the program because it wasn't 100% reliable.
The later releases may work better. If you give it a try, do let us know how it goes.

Edit: I use Firefox, YMMV if you're on another browser.

well, nosh, Opera browser does this actually, but it does not allow you to export that info, to fully search the text, and generally it lacks many functionalities, I am not sure if you know this...

the reason I am asking for a third party software is that I need more functionalities
Yacy is another program that is supposed to do miracles, but I hadnt so far the time to test it

To all the folks suggesting clipboard managers, I think you're missing the point of kalos' request.  He doesn't want to MANUALLY cut/copy and paste, he wants something to automatically parse through a source text file and allow him to quickly send each line to a, potentially, different target file. 

exactly

For the sake of easier coding, let's assume a maximum of thirty targets, okay?  That way, each target can have a button as well as a hotkey:

1-10: Ctrl-1, Ctrl-2, Ctrl-3...
11-20: Ctrl-Shift-1, Ctrl-Shift-2, Ctrl-Shift-3...
21-30: Ctrl-Alt-1, Ctrl-Alt-2, Ctrl-Alt-3...
...or whichever combos you want.

Would this be acceptable?  Also, you didn't answer my question about GUI design.  What did you have in mind?  Did you want to see the whole source text file?  Or just sentence by sentence as it parses through it?  Or, did you want to leave it entirely up to me?

yes, it would be acceptable, but simple letters would be nice too, where each of the letter is the initial of the target filename, anyway, that doesn't matter much

as for GUI, seeing sentence by sentence would be easier for the eyes, which won't be distracted by the above and below sentence, so it may be preferable

in case of seeing the whole source text file, there must be some way to see which sentence is about to be send to the target text file, maybe by highlighting it

For a clipboard manager

I don't think any of these can do what I want

That is totally a Vim`s arena :)

I 've heard so many good things about vim and similar unix text editors, but have not any experience

how easy can this be done with vim?

yes hotkeys, they can be anything, maybe not unlimited, let's say 10?

I don't know if a clipboard manager can do that, it would be nice, if you know one please inform me

Do you mean automatically, or only saves when you ask it to?  Do you mean plain text, or formatted as the original HTML?
automatically and I mean plain text so that it an be searchable

Some questions:

1) How many target text files are we talking about here?  Unlimited?

2) When you say "click a shortcut key", do you mean clicking a button on a window or do you mean pressing a hotkey combo like ctrl-1?

1) I want about 10-20, but practically unlimited

2) both, it would be better to have both options, but for me clicking a button on a window would be faster than a combo

Finished Programs / Finished Coding Snack: Organize Text
« Last post by kalos on July 10, 2010, 04:40 PM »
hello

I don't know if it is easy to do what I want or there is a tool already available... well, I have a text file with a list of sentences (each sentence seperated with a newline)

what I want is to group/organize the sentences, by cutting them and pasting them to specific text files (other that the one with the sentences list)

so I want to automatically select a sentence, cut it, and paste it in the appropriate text file by clicking a shortcut key
then select the next one, cut and paste it in the appropriate text file, etc

to choose the appropriate target text file, where I want each sentence to go, I must click the relevant shorcut key

that would be very handy for this kind of job, any suggestion??

thanks

The "an artist did it, the tools don't matter" point is true, but only to a point. An artist with a lifetime of experience using paint, colored pencils, and other traditional media A: is likely to not be able to reproduce that clean CG style and B: even if given the CG app that was used to make the examples above, would not necessarily be able to reproduce it, at least not without a whole lot of learning. At the same time, yes you could take a random person, train them to use e.g. Blender, and then show them that scene and they could reproduce it. It's arguably not even "art", it's more "illustration" or even "design", and there is lots of debate over the overlap of art, illustration, and design...

I am mainly interested to create illustrations, not art, and I am looking for the right tools and tutorials
there is no possibility of hiring an artist or any other specialist to do it, because of limited budget
thanks
