This is one of the simplest examples for the Pythonista Keyboard. | |
It puts a wrapper around the selection or adds the pair to the cursor position, | |
e.g. some brackets. | |
You need to add exactly two arguments to the calling shortcut button seperated by a space. | |
The script takes the first and puts it in fromnt of the selection, and the seacond after the selection. | |
ToDo: Check if the selection is at the start or the end of the text, and if it has leading trailing spaces and adjust as necessary. | |
Version 0.1.2 | |

Note: This script is designed for the Pythonista Keyboard. You can enable it in the Settings app (under General > Keyboard > Keyboards > Add New Keyboard...). | |
