External Tools: new argument to use clipboard content


I want to suggest an new argument for the External Tools setup:


$(ClipBoard)

This command would take the current clipboard content
and insert that into the tools command line.

Example
Command: .\tools\tool.exe
Argument: $(ClipBoard) $(FilenameEx)

If i had copied " -arg xyz" to the clipboard
and would execute this tool the command line is build like
p:\ath\to\EmEditor\tools\tool.exe -arg xyz p:\ath\to\file.ext

EmEditor Professional v13 beta (12.9.0) released!

$(AppDir), $(AppDrive), and $(Clipboard) parameters
were added to the External Tool Properties.


Thank you Yutaka.

Tested an it works as indented.

Any change the ${} equivalent form
will be added to the Snippets Plugin too?
