Copy highlighted text to clipboard, then use the clipboard to append it to a list

Question

I\'m trying to automate some actions in a browser or a word processor with pyautogui module for Python 3 (Windows 10).

There is a highlighted text in a browser.

Answer 1

Well... Here it is:

from tkinter import Tk

def copy_clipboard():
    clipboard = Tk().clipboard_get()
    return clipboard

Tk().clipboard_get() returns the current text in the clipboard.

And you need to use pyautogui.hotkey('ctrl', 'c') first.
