Copy to clipboard when non supported?


  • Subject: Copy to clipboard when non supported?

OK, I've got a working script for dialing a phone number from a web page.
But I want to improve it.

The copy command is not in the Internet Explorer (don't hiss...) dictionary. So I've built a workaround using QuicKeys. But I'd like to share the script with a couple of friends who do not use QuicKeys but do have AppleScript installed.

QuicKeys copies the web page data to the clipboard, then launches an Applet that sends the appropriate commands to Acid Jazz (Yes, I know I can get rid of the Applet).

Is there a OSAX that can do a copy from the edit menu when that app that does not directly support it?
Or how would *you* work around an non existing copy command?

Thanks,
