Comment injection plugin

Hi all,

I'm looking to write a plugin that injects predefined comments into the HTML code of an epub book, upon selection of a paragraph in the Calibre viewer (UI plugin).

I'm pretty much a newbie to calibre plugin API.
Is there a class or something that I can use to connect to the viewer's paragraph selection functionality?
Can I add a toolbar to the viewer by writing a plugin?

Thanks,
Danny

There is no plugin api for the viewer, apart from a very basic one that allows you to create a plugin that can run code on viewer start and document open.

What you wan to do sounds like you want to edit a book, you should use Tweak Book to explode the book into its constituent html and then use whatever html editing tool you like.
