Say, those are very nice, and ingeniously simple. There's no need for some fancy bloatware clipboard "helper" app if you can manipulate the clipboard with a few simple hotkeys. I think I might use these!

On a side-note, one little-known feature of AutoHotkey is that when you copy files onto the clipboard, such as by pressing Ctrl-C in an open Explorer window, those files will be auto-converted to a list of filenames whenever you reference the clipboard variable in a script. I use this for quite a few things.

***MASSIVE BUMP***

Out of curiosity I looked at the very last post on this forum - from 2004. Useful tip - glad I looked :-)

Simple test. It works. Nice.

Code:
;==========================================================================
; Open Windows Explorer
; Press Control C to Copy Some Files/Folders
; Then press F1 hotkey to display clipboard contents.
;==========================================================================

Return

F1::Msgbox %Clipboard%

What's confusing with the code?

If you want something non-confusing and configurable for manipulating, try out Pastej! :)
