I encounter a fair number of small Python scripts online, and usually try them out by copying them to the clipboard, pasting into Notepad, saving them, and either running them directly or opening them in IDLE.
And so I was wondering if anyone knew of an extension/add-on/script for Firefox which would allow a way to do something like this: user highlights Python code on a webpage right clicks selects a menu item, "Save as Python code" FF pops up a filename dialog or popup for filename (and, though I don't know if this is possible, runs Python code) Not an important thing by any means, but it would be a nice convenience. I know there are similar add-ons in FF for grabbing highlighted text and saving, but they are not good, as they don't seem to preserve line breaks properly or append the .py extension, etc. I've Googled for this and so far it seems it doesn't exist.
