   Well, I guess I should look for a better clipboard manager than the native   
   Windows but I've already fixed the Notepad++ shortcuts.xml to handle it.   
      
   Since I'm a freeware junkie, I give my stuff away for free even as I've   
   invested, oh, I don't know, scores of hours writing this unique macro.   
      
   I'll post my latest Notepad++ shortcuts.xml file for all to benefit from.   
      
   It has been tested against dirty Unicode-contaminated test cases with   
   zero-width characters, combining marks, curly apostrophes, all sorts of   
   weird spaces and invisible operators, Unicode dashes, line separators, etc.   
      
   But it's not perfect yet, but it's almost professional quality (IIDSSM).   
   (If someone paid me for it, then it would be professional quality.) :)   
      
   It has been tested against this testcase, for example.
