Hello Hussein,

Is there a method of available for simply writing the output of a macro to the 
clipboard?

Many of the ditamaps I work with are immense, and I don't want to load the 
whole document set view just to create a single xref to a resource within a 
DITA topic, so I would like to write a command that will take whatever element 
is currently selected, assuming it has an ID, and write either a completed xref 
element or at least the href value for it to the clipboard so that I can paste 
it in at my preferred location.

Should this be possible? I can find no reference to "copying to the clipboard" 
in the commands.pdf document, and simply stopping an existing command that 
copies, processes, and pastes content before the "paste" command is run does 
not seem to leave what would have been pasted sitting on the clipboard.

Thanks,
Jeff.
