Howdy! Is there an easy way to copy a chunk of text matched with a regular 
expression to the clipboard only? No search/replace.

I have an expression that selects everything at the beginning of a document 
up to but not including the first blank line. I need to copy this text and 
copy it to the bottom of the document. I can't use Process Lines Including 
because it uses \A to match beginning of document, which doesn't fly there.

So my expression is:

\A.*\r(^\S.*\r)+

How do I just copy the matched text to clipboard? This needs to be 
scriptable with Keyboard Maestro - so standard menu items and keyboard 
shortcuts would be nice, but I might be able to muddle through AppleScript 
or similar.

Thanks!
