that would do the trick indeed, except when i select whole line (by double-
click on line edge), it doesn't seem to work with the plumber. either is not 
sent by acme, or it doesn't get matched by the simplest possible rule:

data matches '.*error.*'
type is text
plumb start $TEST_SCRIPT $0

which works a-ok when i manually select text on the line. perhaps plumber 
treats LF character specially?

($TEST_SCRIPT is a small helper to test whether the rule matched)


fwiw, that's p9p acme and plumber.
