3 item clipboard

[Guest Guest_LoneReaper]

i have 3 items that i copy during my order processing pase of the day. customer address, email, and order #.

i want to be able to do something like this

---------------------

when ^!1

after ^c

$address = clipget ()

after ^c

$ordernumber = clipget ()

after ^c

$email = clipget ()

End When ^!1

----------------------------

what are the functions for "when" and "after" in this script? that way i have a toggle button(s) to press. how would i keep this script running in the sys tray until i exit it?

and finally, i would need to do something to paste this info in like

^!q = $address

^!w = $ordernumber

^!e = $email

how would i do that?

thanks in advanced

Why not just use CLCL?

that works thanks.

when i add the tool to clear history and set the hotkey to control Q it doesnt do anything. any ideas?

Did you get that working? Not sure what exactly you need, but you could try this if you like:

; CopyQ
; =====
;
; Description:
; This is a HotKey utility that enables the user to copy several
; text clippings and then paste them individually in the order in
; which they were copied.
;
; Limitations:
; For standard ASCII text. A high character is used as a separator.
;
; Notes:
; Modify the HotKeySet lines to suit yourself. Currently, the
; activation key combination is Ctrl+Win+Alt.
; Try uncommenting the SoundPlay line for aural feedback.
; Pasting cannot be rapid-fire if you retain the Display.

I don't know why the indentation went haywire.
