Hi,
It depends on whether you want to send information back to your script. If you do then a plug-in should work, but if you don't then you could create your own application that accesses the screen buffer. You mentioned that you need to pipe the data to another program, so a plug-in isn't necessary. What would be even faster is if you access the screen buffer within your other program, this way you don't need to send data across processes. Hope this helps.
