Search & replace string in clipboard

[hibaxxvi]

Hi!

 

I want to copy a string like "§ABC §DEFGH §Test" into my clipboard and want to paste it like "ABC, DEFGH, Test" at another place.

 

Can someone help me how to solve this?

 

thank you

Try this. When you activate the keyword, it simply grabs whatever is on your clipboard and makes the modifications. Namely it deletes any § that is at the beginning of the line, and substitutes all  § with , .

Hi Vitor,

 

I have nearly the same problem. Unfortunately, the download link didn't work any longer. 

I wonder, if you can post your solution once more?

 

Thanks a lot. 

 

Best regards,

@chrtz Here's a new workflow that should perform the same task for you:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/gtvz2hlf2ox9j3s/Convert Clipboard Contents.alfredworkflow?dl=0

 

Take a look at the workflow itself for more details, but essentially, copy your argument in the format outlined above to the clipboard (e.g. §123 §abc §bunnies) and type "clipstrip" into Alfred, and the argument will be pasted as 123, abc, bunnies.

 

Of course, feel free to fiddle with it and modify it to work as you like

 

Cheers,
Vero
