Script to manipulate contents of clipboard
Hi there,
I'm a total newbie and would like some help. I'd like to have a script to
- load the contents of the clipboard into a variable
- manipulate the variable by adding the characters /* to the beginning of every line and */ to the end of every line
- load the variable back into the clipboard.
Thanks in advance for any help / advice on this.

Could someone show me how to copy the contents of a file to the clipboard automatically without manually selecting its contents? I just want to press the "Paste Key" to show the results. I wish to use this in a ksh script.
I'm using Solaris.
Thanks! (5 Replies)

tk_safeinit
Tk_Init(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_Init(3)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Tk_Init, Tk_SafeInit - add Tk to an interpreter and make a new Tk application.
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
int
Tk_Init(interp)
int
Tk_SafeInit(interp)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter in which to load Tk. Tk should not already be loaded in this interpreter.
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Tk_Init is the package initialization procedure for Tk. It is normally invoked by the Tcl_AppInit procedure for an application or by the
load command. Tk_Init adds all of Tk's commands to interp and creates a new Tk application, including its main window. If the initializa-
tion is successful Tk_Init returns TCL_OK; if there is an error it returns TCL_ERROR. Tk_Init also leaves a result or error message in
interp->result.
If there is a variable argv in interp, Tk_Init treats the contents of this variable as a list of options for the new Tk application. The
options may have any of the forms documented for the wish application (in fact, wish uses Tk_Init to process its command-line arguments).
Tk_SafeInit is identical to Tk_Init except that it removes all Tk commands that are considered unsafe. Those commands and the reasons for
their exclusion are:
bell Continuous ringing of the bell is a nuisance.
clipboard
A malicious script could replace the contents of the clipboard with the string "rm -r *" and lead to surprises when the contents of
the clipboard are pasted.
grab Grab can be used to block the user from using any other applications.
menu Menus can be used to cover the entire screen and to steal input from the user.
selection
See clipboard.
send Send can be used to cause unsafe interpreters to execute commands.
tk The tk command recreates the send command, which is unsafe.
tkwait Tkwait can block the containing process forever
toplevel
Toplevels can be used to cover the entire screen and to steal input from the user.
wm If toplevels are ever allowed, wm can be used to remove decorations, move windows around, etc.
KEYWORDS
safe, application, initialization, load, main window
