Yet another? The two most-used 3rd party osaxen (Jon's Commands and Akua
Sweets) both have commands for doing this.

But so does Standard Additions, which comes with your Mac and every other
Mac since at least OS 8.5. It incorporates the Jon's Commands version:

the clipboard

You always have to use "the", which is part of the terminology:

set yourText to "your text or whatever"
set the clipboard to yourText
