Problem

I'm making an autohotkey script to run highlighted text through a calculator, and i need to send the contents of the clipboard as a sequence of keypresses, since the calculator doesn't really support pasting of a mathematical operation. How would this be accomplished?

Fix for: AutoHotkey: how to send contents of clipboard as key presses?

Low Risk

You need to use a command like this to "type" exactly what's in the clipboard. ^+v means ctrl+shift+v. Replace with desired keyboard shortcut. See this page for which characters map to which modifier keys.
