How to paste from Windows clipboard into NWN2

[*pelhikano]

If you ever had to write the same thing in NWN2 over and over, then you probably have wished at some point that you could just paste from the clipboard, but NWN2 by standard does not have that feature. There is a workaround however, but you need a (free) helper program.

• download PhraseExpress and install (free and unlimited for personal use)
• make a new macro with the command {#insertclipboard} and assign whatever key combination you want to act as a "Paste" inside NWN2, like Windows-Key-V or something.

That's it, you can select and copy with Ctrl-V anything in Notepad or whatever now and then have your char say that ingame by pressing Enter for the text entry and then Windows-Key-V. PhraseExpress simulates keypresses, so no need for NWN2 to even know about the clipboard.
