Now here’s a little trick. 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.
In my case i want to get the pinging result of my network connection copied to a notepad. I pinged my network service to see if my internet connection was still stable. After pinging it, i received the result below:
To copy this result and paste into a notepad, you will need to use the Tee command. The tee command for getting the details from a network pings is ipconfig /all | clip .This command should be entered after the result has been shown. This should be beside the c:\> command. If you have entered it correctly, then your result should be like the one below:
After entering the command, open your notepad and paste (Ctrl + V) the network connection details there.This is the result of what i got below:
You can download the network connection details i pasted on my notepad from my end.
For now, this can be done using the windows 7 and windows 8 operating system alone.
There are other command lines you can use in different functions. These are:
- 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.
