# coding: utf-8
# firstly need to select and copy
# the character you want to search

# import modules to get/set text to
# clipboard and open other apps
import clipboard
import webbrowser

# we are extracting from the clipboard
text01 = clipboard.get()
base = 'http://www.cantonese.sheik.co.uk/scripts/wordsearch.php?searchtype=2&text='
# search for the character in cantodict

webbrowser.open('safari-http:')
clipboard.set(base + text01)
# seems to be a coding problem so paste clipboard by hand rather than directly
