It is reproducible, here's how I do it :
1) Create a document and write something like this :
foo
bar
some
thing
2) Than add a new external tool with a name and those settings :
Save: nothing
Input: Current selection
Output: Replace current selection
Applicability: All documents
With this code :
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
while (<>) {
chomp;
print $item." ";
}
And save the new tool
3) Select the text in the document
4) Use your new tool from the Tools menu.
At that point in Karmic, the text was replaced with the right output
that would be the highlighted text on a single line separated with
spaces. In Lucid, it outputs the results in a console on the bottom tab.
If it helps, this is an upgrade from Karmic.
