copy-to-clipboard-with-n4m

why bother with node ?
you seem to be using shell ...
Windows :
echo "string to copy" | clip
Mac:
echo "string to copy" | pbcopy


P.S. shell on windows can run powershell commands as well.

or use -Append to add to clipboard without wiping it etc

P.S. shell on windows can run powershell commands as well.
for example 
Powershell.exe Get-Clipboard  (shell outputs clipboard contents)
or Powershell.exe  Set-Clipboard -Value "string to copy into clipboard"
or use -Append to add to clipboard without wiping it etc


thanks. I know shell on both OS. If i ask for n4m script it's because i have my reasons. 

There are few such tasks that are more appropriated to be handled by js/n4m script, rather by externals, which also would be better for further development/maintenance.

i will try to see if i can adapt scripts from npm.

here you go with npm module :" copy-paste"

here you go with npm module  :" copy-paste" 

const readline = require("readline");
const ncp = require("copy-paste");
const Max = require('max-api');

const rl = readline.createInterface({
  input: process.stdin,
  terminal: false
})

rl.on("line", async line => {
  ncp.copy(line)
})
