Is there a way to have the program accept the copy command data generated from another app and insert it into a txt file?

I do this all the time.

$ ls -la | bbedit —new-window

I even have an alias named `bbnew` for this.

I think the OP wants to use pasteboard contents, not stdout from a command. So a slight modification to your command would suffice:

    pbpaste | bbedit —new-window

And create an alias named `bbpaste`.
