This still had the logic ensuring that a document was selected, but this is not really very convenient for a "Paste as New" feature. <pre><code>@script(&quot;Paste As New&quot;, &quot;DocUtils&quot;) def pasteAsNew(): &quot;&quot;&quot; This script will paste the current contense of the clipboard into a new document &quot;&quot;&quot; newDoc = pn.NewDocument(None) newEditor = scintilla.Scintilla(newDoc) newEditor.BeginUndoAction() newEditor.Paste() newEditor.EndUndoAction() pass</code></pre> pypn script -- duplicate text in new doc and paste as new (NickDMax) http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/570#post-1987 Tue, 28 Apr 2009 06:31:52 +0000 NickDMax 1987@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ One thing I often do is extract a section of a file from one file open a new document and paste the result into it for later processing... I call this "clipboarding" and I do a good bit of it. Here is a script that will automate that process. If you select a section of text and run the duplicate script it will open a new document and write in the content. If you do not have a selection this will duplicate the current document in an new window. The file also contains a simple function to paste the contents of the clipboard into the a new document. docUtils.py: <pre><code>############################################################################### ## DocUtils scripts -- the purpose of this script is to provide functions for ## dealing with new documents. ## By: NickDMax import pn import scintilla from pypn.decorators import script @script("Duplicate", "DocUtils") def dupDocument(): """ This script will extract the current selection to a new document.
