Feature: Allow copy/paste source

It'd be awesome to be able to copy/paste any text source into the bookmarklet as an alternative to reading source text from a webpage. I have a textbook copied to my webspace as a txt file that works, some strange unicode here and there, but it'd be nice to copy chapters or paragraphs from DOC, TXT, PDF or EPUB without the FTP step.
I agree it would be nice to have a version hosted somewhere that allowed text input, but in the mean time you should be able to open those files in browsers locally (url would be file://...) and then use the bookmarklet.
You're right, that works great for TXT (and notepad is easy enough to copy/paste to). While I can open PDF in browser, the bookmarklet doesn't read from it. If anyone is kind enough to write the code, I'll donate a domain and hosting...
got openspritz.org, like I said, willing to donate.
Oh shit! This guy is amazing.
Here's a random thought: We just put a file selector in the bookmarklet. Little icons, one brings up a text input box, the other opens a file select dialog.
