Question #157211 on Sikuli changed:

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
The approach is, to simulate a copy & paste:

#focus on source window
App("some-identifying-text-from-source-notepad-window").focus()
wait(1)
type('a', KEY_CTRL)
type('c', KEY_CTRL)
# now we have it on the clipboard
# switch to other notepad window
App("some-identifying-text-from-target-notepad-window").focus()
wait(1)
type('v', KEY_CTRL)
wait(1)
# inserts clipboard content at cursor

with these actions, that are not fully under control of Sikuli, you have
to insert sufficient waiting times (therefor the wait()'s). It might run
without them - just find out.
