    Status: Open => Answered

abuzer stream proposed the following answer:
If you are trying to read a text that you can select, after selecting it
with doubleClick(), you can assign the datayo you copied with ctrl+c
->(type( Key.CTRL+'c')) to your variable with Env.getClipboard.


Env.getClipboard()
Get the content of the clipboard if it is text, otherwise an empty string.

NOTE: Be careful, when using Env.getClipboard() together with paste(),
since paste internally uses the clipboard to transfer text to other
applications, the clipboard will contain what you just pasted.
Therefore, if you need the content of the clipboard, you should call
Env.getClipboard() before using paste().

Tipp: When the clipboard content was copied from a web page that mixes
images and text, you should be aware, that there may be whitespace
characters around and inside your text, that you might not have
expected. In this


text = Env.getClipboard()
