Does anybody know of something as elegant and extensible as the OpenWindows "Text Extras Menu" function for the OW Deskset tools for manipulating text in your compose window?  (something i greatly miss from my old 'mailtool' days)

Through click-drag selection and right-click context menu you could pass the selected text through ANY arbitrary filter you defined in your ~/.text_extras_menu.  E.G.

"Format"        fmt
"Hanging rewrap"        par -h1 -w78
"Insert Brackets"    MENU
    " ( )"    insert_brackets ( )
    " [ ]"    insert_brackets \[ \]
    " { }"    insert_brackets { }
    "`` ''"    insert_brackets \" \"
"Insert Brackets"    END
