new commands to select text

[bragiato]

Hello, I'm thinking about automating some tasks in order to reduce the number of mouse and keyboard clicks.
To achieve my purpose, I ask if it would be possible to create four new commands, with the following functions:

1. select the text of the word below (or closest) to the mouse pointer
2. select the text of the sentence below (or closest to) the mouse pointer
3. select the paragraph text below (or closest to) the mouse pointer
4. select the text from the line below (or closest) to the mouse pointer

Just to give an example, if these commands existed, I would be able to:

• without clicking on anything, position the mouse pointer over the text of a paragraph
• press a hotkey to trigger a chain of custom commands, through which sioyek automatically:
  • would select paragraph text;
  • would select a color for the highlight;
  • would highlight the text;
  • would copy the text;
  • would get the page number;
  • would run a script whereby the text and page number of the selection would be sent to a mind map program.

For other users, I think the commands could present easier alternatives for selecting and highlighting texts.

Anyway, I leave these suggestions here in case you find them relevant.

Thank you very much for developing this wonderful program, the best ever!
