Here's a part of my script.
| Code: | ;Save and clear clipboard
ClipSaved := ClipboardAll
Clipboard =
;Cut highlight to clipboard
Send, ^x
;If nothing is highlighted, select all and cut
If Clipboard is Space
{
;Select all and cut to clipboard
Send, ^a^x
}
;get rid of all carriage returns (`r).
StringReplace, ClipboardString, Clipboard, `r`n, `n, All
;restore the original clipboard and free memory
Clipboard := ClipSaved
ClipSaved =

Is this what you meant? | Code: | !z:: ; Alt-z hotkey
ClipSaved := ClipboardAll ; Save original clipboard
Send ^c ; highlighted text to clipboard
VarName := ClipBoard ; Name of the new variable
%VarName%= your_value ; Since you didn't know the variable name
; at writing the script, you have to use %...%
Clipboard := ClipSaved ; Restore original clipboard
ClipSaved = ; Free memory
return |
Select some text, press Alt-z and you have a new variable with the selection as its name. Your script can only access it with indirection (%VarName%), because you did not know the name of the variable at the time of writing the script. |
