Getting a code and setting it to clipboard
Danny Boy:
How would I go about copying a code to the clipboard with a function?
For example if I typed into the console
getcode("Add-Ons/Server_Whatever/server.cs");
It would take the code from Add-Ons/Server_Whatever/server.cs and set it to my clipboard.
Jardev:
I'm not sure if you can set strings to the clipboard with TS. I only know you can see what is currently stored with a command like getClipboard()

As long as setClipboard is an actual function, then this will work.
--- Code: ---function copyFileToClipboard(%file)
{
%string = "";
%file = new fileObject();
%file.openForRead(%file);
while(!%file.isEOF())
{
%string = %string SPC %file.readLine();
}
%file.Close();
%file.Delete();
setClipboard(%string);
}
--- End code ---

look at setClipboard() and getClipboard() here: http://docs.garagegames.com/tge/official/content/documentation/Reference/Console%20Functions/TorqueScript_Console_Functions_13.html#setClipboard.28_string_.29
It might not work for your purposes, it looks like it operates through a GUI
