How can I use the content of the clipboard in a function?
When I use Paste[] it copies it in the current cell of the active notebook. On the other hand, I can easily put an expression to the clipboard using CopyToClipboard[expr].
You could try using ClipboardNotebook[]
Although you should probably be more careful with it than I have been in the above code. See for example Szabolcs’ Mathematica tricks.
