I am wondering if Python could be used to write a program that allows:

1. Highlight some text
2. Ctl+HOTKEY1 stores the string of text somewhere as COPIEDTEXT1
3. Highlight another string of text
4. Ctl+HOTKEY1 stores another string of text somewhere as COPIEDTEXT2

THEN

5. Ctl+HOTKEY2 pastes COPIEDTEXT1
6. Ctl+HOTKEY2 pastes COPIEDTEXT2

I found "pyperclip" and "Tkinter" but I don't know where to start.

Thanks,

You might find the GUI automation tool Skiuli or the newer SikuliX programs useful. They can be used to script a GUI and perform operations.

If you're on Windows then the COM interface can be useful (if the program you want to copy from supports it).
