You can get hold of the clipped text in several ways: The Clip function only returns the first line of the clipboard: var1=clip Clip plugin services return long multi-line clips complete such as: var1=clip.get or using the one Sean mentioned: Clip.ToFileAppend() you don't need to capture the clip text into a variable first. ______________________________________________ There's no need to use any external program such as Emacs. Powerpro can write or append to files in several ways, such as Exec.ToFile() or clip.tofileappend() or a few ways using the file plugin. Exec.ToFile(filepath,shortdate ++" "++ xtime) appends a single line of text to a file. Exec.ToFile(filepath,"") is one of several ways to add a blank line to a file. Or you could use the file plugin, such as: file.writeall(filepath, clip.get, "a") file.writeall(filepath, datetimevar, "a") So your ClipCaptured command list could do Exec.ToFile(filepath,"") Exec.ToFile(filepath,shortdate ++?" "++ xtime) Clip.TextAppend() Clip.ToFileAppend(filepath) In all the above, filepath can be a variable not in quotes, or a literal path in quotes.
