ClipCMD

A simple utility program to simplify your workflow

What is it?

ClipCMD is a Windows app that allows you to create macros and run them by copying them to the clipboard.
You write a macro anywhere, copy it to your clipboard, and it will be automatically replaced by the output of the specified macro script.
ClipCMD uses PowerShell as scripting language.

Example

Prefix: _
Suffix: _
Macro name: email
Macro script: Write-Output [email protected]
Macro script (alternative): "[email protected]"

Input: _email_
Output: [email protected]

Usage

1. Download one of the releases
2. Start setup.exe
3. (Optional) Set the prefix and suffix for your commands
4. Specify some commands in the built-in text field
   • Format:

     [<command name(s) (separated by comma)>]
     <scriptText>
     <scriptText>
     <scriptText>
     ...
     [<command name(s) (separated by comma)>]
     <scriptText>
     <scriptText>
     <scriptText>
     ...
     

   • Strings between square brackets define macros.
   • You can define macro aliases by separating them by a comma [quit, exit, q]
   • Lines between a macro definition and the next macro (or the end of the file) is PowerShell code.
   • Everything you write to the output stream replaces the input macro.
   • You can pass parameters to the scripts by separating the parameters by space after the macro: _combine hi nope_
   • You can access the parameters by accessing the $args array.
5. There is one prebuilt macro named list. This lists all of your macros.
6. Write [suffix][macroName][preffix] somewhere, and then select it and press CTRL+C
