It'd be nice to be able to save the url at point to pocket (or, if in eww and not at an url, the url of the current page)

Hi Kevin,

Unfortunately, as far as I know, this would be a mode-dependent command, as there is no universal way to retrieve a URL across all modes. e.g. if it's an Org buffer you have to use one command (which isn't even built-in to Org), if it's eww you have to use another, if it's w3m you have to use another... I did add a command for that for w3m to the readme yesterday.

So, it would be very handy, but we'd have to account for at least those different modes. Would you be willing to help me work on this, or at least test it?

Thanks.

Hi again,

I added a command that works in eww, w3m, and Org, and tries to use thing-at-pt in other modes. Please let me know how it works for you. Thanks.

Awesome! I'll be testing it out :-)

Works great in ERC and on [[http://example.com][example.com]] style org links and links from eww, but there are a couple things that I think could be improved:
