  I want to create the following snippet that insert clipboard data (a filepath copied in the clipboard). I used the syntax provided in the help file. The line with the macro is this:
  `# Interface.write(clipboardData.getData(“”));`

I copied a path (c:test) in the clipboard and executed the snipped. It worked fine. Then I copied another path (d:test) and now the text was appended so I got:
c:testd:test
executing the snippet again without another copy before added the clipboard data again:
c:testd:testd:test
after some testing I found out that the following line sents combined all what I had inserted with the above macro before.
`#`
So this line would also get the result:
c:testd:testd:test
I this a bug or do I something wrong?
Thanks and all the best
