I need to be able to send text from the clipboard to an application

  • 0

I need to be able to send text from the clipboard to an application I’m writing (in Objective-C) via AppleScript. Obviously I need to make my application scriptable (I’m currently reading the Apple Docs about this) but is this possible/easy-to-implement?

    If you need your app to retrieve data from the clipboard, you should use the NSPasteboard class.

    Why do you think you need to use AppleScript?
