#Save Text to File

Firefox addon which saves selected text to a file in a directory (defaulting to the user's home directory).
Goal is to simplify note taking on web pages so users can refer to data at a later stage offline, without the need to remember URL's etc.
After highlighting some text, right-click and select Save Text to File
File names can have the following pre-defined formats:

• userPreference.txt
• userPreference--<todaysdate>.txt
• userPreference--<timestamp>.txt
• userPreference--<todaysdate>-<timestamp>.txt
