create hyperlink with alternative text on clipboard

[artuur9]

Thank you, it works!

One small detail, the function PasteHtml seems to add a newline character at the end of the selection (or clipboardcontents when using .setclip instead of .setsel).  Is it possible to prevent this?

This is the code I have:

Macro LinkFromClipboardText

Code:

Copy      Help

str s.getclip  ;; get url from the clipboard
str html.from("<a href=''" s "''>here</a>")  ;;create the link

str sh.format("Version:1.0[]StartHTML:00000033[]%s" html)
sh.setclip("HTML Format")
