    I love it! It's simple, and exactly what I was looking for. I just wanted to post a regular expression to add stars in one step:

    s/([^\n]{40,50}) /$1*/g

    Or, if you have a find and replace feature that uses regular expressions (such as in dreamweaver) search for "([^\n]{40,50}) " and replace with "$1*" (remove the quotes - and note there is a space at the end of the search string)

    And here's one to remove extra blank lines:

    What a great widget! The manual line breaks may be awkward, but the end result is perfect.

    I have a quick question: is it possible to clone this widget so that there are two copies on the desktop looking at two different files? I think It would be great to be able to dictate the file name and location that Inspiration references (or maybe I just missed this function).

    For me, that would allow the widget to become a bit more multi-functional, with one copy for quotations and another for notes o More
