I think, based on my experiments, there could be a way around it. You can't use process text, but actions written as shell scripts etc still work. You should be able to write an applescript using the on run handler and call that script from a bash script with something like osascript scriptname $1

in other words call the applescript, which doesn't seem to be able to get the text from a shell script, which seems to be able to.
Thanks for the reply, Yvonee. you have already surprised me by using something like Quicksilver. And now this. (Please take my comments positively) Regarding, the "large type" issue it feels like I can't see most of the things though I have eyes. I should have known the fix earlier. I have posted it now just after you sent me this email.
