In this post we will be creating a Python script that will paste text from the clipboard. To do this we will use the Pyperclip module which enables us to copy and paste clipboard functions. In this example we will be retrieving the contents of the clipboard and then printing this to output.
See the sample of code below where we retrieve the contents of the clipboard and return it to output.
import pyperclip
text_from_clipboard = pyperclip.paste()
print(text_from_clipboard)Take a look at some of our other content around the Python programming language by clicking here.
