Can you please provide an example? I can interpret this
in a couple of different ways and I'm not sure what you
want.

Also, when you say "output", do you mean that the function
should return e.g. a string representation of whatever it is
you want? Or print the result in the minibuffer?
Or insert it in the buffer you are editing? (and, if the last,
where?)
