RShift & Enter::
ControlGet, outputVar, Selected,, Scintilla1, ahk_class Notepad++

Selected
Retrieves the selected text in an Edit control.

Scintilla controls are not Edit controls. If a control responds to Edit control messages correctly, it will work. Scintilla controls do not respond to all Edit control messages correctly.
