Don’t get me wrong, Mystic Paste is great! However if I’m on ##wicket and someone asks a question about some code, and I know I’ve written that code, I want to be the first to respond. I don’t want some n00b making me look like a n00b by responding first :) That’s what the plugin does, it will take selected text from Eclipse, figure out which type of editor it resides in and use that information to determine the syntax, post the code to Mystic Paste and copy the url for the code to the clipboard.
