Ubiquity takes care of parsing the user's input, so you don't need to worry about handling prounoun substitution or any of the other natural-language-like features of the Ubiquity parser. Try selecting some text on a page, and Ubiq "echo this". Ubiquity should now echo the selected text.
Note that we gave three pieces of information when defining our argument: its role, its nountype, and its label. The label is the easiest part: It's just whatever text you want to have appear in the Ubiquity interface as a prompt for the user. E.g, if you ubiq "echo", you will see the label for the argument: <pre> echo ''(your shout)''</pre> The roles and the nountypes require some more explanation. We'll cover each of these them in detail next.
