summary: retrieve the selection from the "Strings" window

description:
  In IDA it's possible to write actions that can be applied even to
  core (i.e., "standard") widgets. The actions in this example use the
  action "context" to know what the current selection is.

  This example shows how you can either retrieve string literals data
  directly from the chooser (`ida_kernwin.get_chooser_data`), or
  by querying the IDB (`ida_bytes.get_strlit_contents`)

keywords: actions
