About Ycon:
A small utility, intended for use in Ruby or Python scripts, that translates dropped items into list-structured text.

This is a little utility that I am a bit surprised has not been written before. It opens a small window where items may be dropped, and outputs (to stdout) a text representation of the (item) message in the form of a list-structure understood by both Python and Ruby. It is intended to be invoked from a script in one of these languages, but may be run in a Terminal window if you just want to see what it generates. The text can easily be converted in the script to an actual list object, and desired pieces of the message can then be extracted for use.

Not to compete with TubePositive (:-), but I have used my own Ruby code for a while to extract video URLs from YouTube and pass them to vlc. However, this required cutting and pasting the link text, which was a bit of a nuisance. With Ycon, I just drag the link to the window and the script does the rest.
