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.

Details about this version:
The main difference between this and the original release is that some command-line options have been added. By default it no longer opens a 'floating' window, which proved to be a real nuisance, though this is still an option.
The other options control the placing and title of the 'drop window', and whether it should output extensive binary data in its entirety.
The original release included 'RubyTube' to play YouTube videos through vlc, but this stopped working when YouTube changed their page code, so it is no longer in this package. A version that handles the current YouTube is now available under its own heading on BeBits.
Simple demo Ruby and Python scripts have been added to the package.
