Copy CommandLine Output To Windows Clipboard
Thank you, Amit Agarwal (commandline tip)!
The following is a great little tip for working with the Windows Commandline interface:
If you add the pipe* operator (|) to your command followed by the “clip” command, the output of your original command will get saved to the Windows clipboard and won’t print inside the Command Prompt window.
Here are some examples:
- dir | clip Copy the content of a folder to the clipboard.
- tree | clip Display the recursive directory structure and save it to the clipboard.
- type error.log | clip Place the content of the file error.log to the clipboard.
- sort file.txt | clip Sort the file and save the sorted output to the clipbord.
- ipconfig /all | clip Get details of your network connection for sending to tech support.
