Thanks. I'll comb other .JS files for suitable code examples. to see if
they paste together and run/work.

I was looking at lightbar.js, how would this be called? I assume, that
at the least, I'd have to pass the file location to provide the lines of
text to make up the menu.

But other than that, getting back the selected text and getting it
placed into 'host' will be a challenge (to put it kindly)

I'll post whatever progress when I get to a stoping place.

Thanks for your input.
