I am looking for a way to append selected text to the current clip in the clipboard with a hotkey in windows.
I need this to either be a clipboard manager or be a solution that will work together with a clipboard manager.
Is there any solution to this ?
thanks miroxlav ! the problem with such a solution is that it doesn't seem to work together with a clipboard manager. The script keeps sending CTTRL+c which the clipboard manager catches and stores separately – kofifus – 2015-02-23T22:41:15.407
@kofifus – Isn't your clipboard manager using history? I am using clipboard manager 3D Clipboard which has history of 100 items. Each usage of the above macro adds 2 entries to clipboard history, but with given history length, it is not a problem. If your clipboard manager behaves worse than this, maybe you can consider switching to other tool. Please understand that getting the clipboard content other way than sending

is not possible for most applications. Therefore it is not possible to avoid extra items in ANY clipboard manager – unfillable requirement.Yes thx, but the clipboard manager itself could easily do it. Are you aware of any clip manager which has an append feature ? – kofifus – 2015-02-25T00:53:17.360
@kofifus – no, I'm not. Anyway, the above solution does what you requested in the question. I'm successfully using it. You have originally given no other criteria to fulfill. You can try the macro out and if your clipboard manager has problem, perhaps you can try 3D Clipboard which I'm using. – miroxlav – 2015-02-25T01:12:58.323
