Thanks webguide:
... Just curious - maybe I missed something - But you mentioned that you
created something like this - but not HOW you created it - I'm still in the
dark ... ( I am able to currently save to it ongoing text file however I
would like to keep it all on the clipboard - which for some reason didn't
work very well for me - I did get it to retain the old clipboard - but the
quickies copy command did not work correctly - even though it worked by
itself just fine)

How do you intend to call it back?
*** basically, if it stayed on the clipboard and just kept increasing
itself - and making the clipboard larger and larger - that would be fine for
me right now. Then, any point I could hit paste it into some text file and
the whole thing would be there.
here is what I tried that did not work ...
===
set holder to the clipboard
set divider to return & return & "--------" & return & return
tell application "QuicKeys Backgrounder"
PlayByName "Clippy_Add"
--( all this does is trigger command-c)
end tell
--set newstuff to the clipboard
--set the clipboard to holder & divider & newstuff
===

I actually set something like this up in Youpi specifically for saving text

Youpi is free and improving all the time - probably quicker than Quickeys.

It also has much of the functionality of QK. The developer is very open to
