I would like to create an application using AppleScript to copy the system info and email it to myself. I know to to do the emailing aspect and how to make the email have the content of whatever is in the clipboard. How might I use AppleScript coding to copy text to the clipboard?
In case it helps here is the way to email whatever is in the clipboard:
set a to "[email protected]"
tell application "Mail"
tell (make new outgoing message)
set subject to (the clipboard)
set content to "content"
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:a}
send
end tell
end tell
You simply use
set the clipboard to "Some text"
You can also assign to the various parts of the clipboard (plain text, unicode, pict) directly, as in:
set the clipboard to {text:(outputText as string), Unicode text:outputText}
