I'd want to write a script that reports the sum and mean of a column
of numbers that are selected using column selection.
I have a Python text filter that does this now with normally selected
text (working on the first number found on each line), but it writes
the information after the selected text (by echoing the input and then
writing the new info). That technique won't work with a column
selection; there's no obvious place to safely write the results.
I would prefer to open a new window and write the results there. Is
there some easy way to do this? From a Python script?
My Python is minimal, but this would be trivial with regular
expressions in Perl, without even selecting the column beforehand.
