Publish Quote for Habari
I often quote web sites on my blog. In WordPress this was made easy with the bookmarklet on post-new - just highlight some text and click the bookmarklet and you've got a new formatted post with the quoted text. Publish Quote is a plugin that provides this functionality for Habari. It's only been tested on a Mac using Firefox , Safari and Camino. Bug reports, feedback, or just comments letting me know you're using it are welcome.echo “hey, it works” > /dev/null
Seems to work pretty nicely in Firefox 2.0.0.11 on Windows XP as well. Good one Michael.
I would love to see this extended to also do other things than open up a new post inside my Habari admin though. A lot of times I copy/hightlight stuff on other sites, for later quote/reference use. It would be great to be able to use something like this to put interesting, with a reference to the original URL, into some kind of administrative scratchpad inside the Habari admin.

Thanks for the meta, Christian :)
The scratchpad is an interesting idea. At the moment, I would just save stuff as a draft, but that’s not very friendly if you want to pull in a few different things that you’ve saved previously. Mulling required.
