<h2 class="chapter">4 User-defined tools</h2>
<p><!-- moo-help-section: USER_TOOLS -->
<p>medit allows extending its functionality with user-defined
<dfn>tools</dfn>. It can be a Lua or Python (provided medit has been
built with Python support) script which is executed inside medit,
or a shell script which can use the text of the open document as
its input and/or output.
<p>There are some predefined tools which you can use as
an example or to modify to suit your needs.
