QCEmessenger – Clipboard Automation

Quick Clipboard Editor commands can be included in scripts or launched from external applications in order to automate all sorts of Clipboard transformations. The QCE companion executable QCEmessenger allows to execute QCE command from the command line or any scripting tool like Windows batch file, PowerShell, VBA, VBScript or AutoHotkey script, and even from Quick Access Popup (using Application favorites).

To make sure the executable file QCEmessenger.exe is found in QCE folder under Program files (or in your working directory for portable/ZIP file users) can be executed from any folder, add the QCE folder to the PATH environment variable or replace “QCEmessenger” below with the app’s full path.

When passing parameters to QCEmessenger, make sure you enclose these parameters between double-quotes if they include spaces. See the examples under Exec.

Note: QCEmessenger commands can only work on Clipboard text format. When the Clipboard contains various formats (like HTML, RTF, etc.) only the text format is processed and made available in the Clipboard.
