Feature request

Is it possible for you to paste clipboard text
as HTML code if there is any?

Because if i copy text from an webside
there is HTML code also in the clip board.
Then sometimes it is nice to paste this HTML code
into the editor and modify them, f.ex. delete JScript
or modify absolute links

Maybe you could provide an “Paste as..”-Dialog
to choose what to paste from clipboard?

:-D What do you think?

I don’t want to make EmEditor core bloated adding features like this, but it might be possible using a plug-in. Perhaps, someone can create a plug-in does just that.

For others with same interest;

in the meantime I utilize JavaScript to paste HTML format from clipboard, seems to work fine for me.
 

EmEditor JavaScript macro:

// get HTML formated clipboard content:
strOUT = clipboardData.getData("html");	

// if there is no HTML formated clipboard content, get plain TEXT content:
if( strOUT == "" ){
	strOUT = clipboardData.getData("text");
	status = "TextApe: No HTML format found. Will paste pure text.";
}else{
	status = "TextApe: HTML format found and pasted.";
}

// write to document:
document.selection.text = strOUT ;

 
 
Until I got this idea, I utilized Peters ‘Windows clipboard raw viewer’ to get the HTML format.
