I am looking for software which, upon a special key combo, will look at the
word under the cursor (regardless of what Windows program you are in)
and then jump to a url based on that word. The software would have
a method of associating words with urls, probably a table or
possibly an algorithm which turns the word into a url.
For example, the words in the table might be all the keywords
in a particular programming language, e.g. "while". If one is
in an arbitrary editor, displaying some source code, and positioned
over a keyword it would take you to the online manual page for
that statement when you pressed the special key combo.
The application would have to support a few hundred
such keywords but would _not_ have to support a vocabulary
with tens of thousands such as all of English.
Does this exist?
