Paste    That Another/Insert/Last/New/Next/End/Home/Left/Right/Quote (Quotes)/Bottom/Top    
["Paste Quote" adds quotes to the saved text you are pasting."Paste Bottom"is especially useful in Windows Explorer because it lets you immediately see that files have been pasted correctly]

Another/Insert/Last/New/Next/End/Home/Left/Right/Quote (Quotes) Paste
Replace this Line    
[This replaces the current line with saved text.]

Duplicate    Line/Paragraph/(All) Document/This    1-20    Times

Insert    Up (Line)/Down/Top/Bottom/Paragraph/Top Paragraph/Bottom Paragraph/,/./?

Cut/Copy    All/This
(Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to <Program>
Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to <Program>

Cut/Copy    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to    Last/Next    Window/Document

Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to    Last/Next    Window/Document
Cut/Copy    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to    Last/Next    
[This is a quicker way to say the above "Window" command.]
Cut/Copy to <Program>    [This and the next two macros are quicker ways to say the above "Cut/Copy This" commands.]
Cut/Copy    to    Last/Next    Window/Document
Cut/Copy    to    Last/Next    
[This quick version is especially useful in conjunction with the general Global macros "Switch This" and "Switch Selection." Using this combination you can quickly copy material you are working on from a program that doesn't allow NatSpeak's "Select and Say" abilities into the NatSpeak window, work on it using "Select and Say," then copy it back]
Copy and Paste    [This is an alternate way to say the above "Copy to Next."]

Program:
NatSpeak, Word, Notepad, Wordpad, Eudora, Netscape, Explorer, Dreamweaver, Fusion, Quicken, Photoshop, Calculator, Cute HTML, WordPerfect.

Copy/Copy All/Copy This/Copy Line/Copy Paragraph    Close     [This combines copying with closing a window.]

Cut/Copy
/Add    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to   1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20     
[This and the next few macros control a sort of voice clipboard. In this and the next macro, the "Cut" and "Copy" commands bring up Notepad, WordPad or Word with the requested file, and pastes what you have copied into it, and saves the file. Any existing 1-20 or Link 1-20 file is erased when you paste a new one. The "Wordpad List/List 1-10/Scrap/Pad/a-z, Alpha-Zulu/1-20/Word 1-20/Word a-z, Alpha-Zulu" commands are more permanent because the "Cut" and "Copy" commands add to the files rather than replacing them. The "Add" command adds to the end of a 1-20 or Link 1-20 file rather than replacing the file. The 1-20, "Link", "Scrap", "Pad" and "List" commands are all Notepad files. A-z, Alpha-Zulu and Wordpad 1-20 are Wordpad files, and Word 1-20 are Word files.
These commands are useful for copying and pasting multiple files, or copying to a more permanent place then the Clipboard. The link commands are also part of several Eudora and Dreamweaver commands. You can load these up with URLs you want to later link.]
Cut/Copy/Add    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to   1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20     Stay/Close     [The "Close" is the same as the above command. The "Stay" command leaves the file you copied to open.]
Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to   1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20 
Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to
  1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20   Stay/Close

Cut/Copy/Add    to
   1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20    
[This is a quicker way to say the above "Cut/Copy This" commands.]

Cut/Copy/Add    Sentence    to   
1-20/Link 1-20/Scrap/Pad/List/List 1-20/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/Wordpad 1-20/Word 1-20     
[Note: This "Sentence" version of the "Cut/Copy/Add" commands only works in Word. For example, you can say "Cut Sentence to 4" only if you are in a Word document.]

Note
: you must have List.txt, Link.txt, Scrap.txt, and 1.txt, 2.txt, Alpha.txt, Bravo.txt etc. files in the folder My Documents in a subfolder called Store (My Documents\Store) in order for the above and following "1-20" and "Link/List/Scrap/Pad/Alpha-Zulu" commands to work.You can accomplish this by adding the folders yourself, or by downloading the "Store" folder from Scriven and putting it in your "My Documents" folder.

Self-Guided Tour: Cutting and Pasting with 1-20 Notepad Files
If there were three paragraphs in different locations in a document that you wanted to cut, then paste in a different order in a different place in the document, you would do the following:
1. Highlight the first paragraph you wanted to cut by saying "Select Paragraph" (or "This Paragraph") and say "Cut 1"
2. Highlight the second paragraph and say "Cut 2"
3. Highlight the third paragraph and say "Cut 3"
4. Go to where you want to paste the paragraphs and say "Paste 2," "Paste 1," "Paste 3," or whatever order you want to paste them in.]

Add to Pad    
[This pastes to the existing Notepad document without first adding space.]
Paste/Copy    1-20/List/List 1-10/Scrap/Pad/a-z,Alpha-Zulu    [The "Paste" commands paste the contents of the 1-20, List, or Scrap files to the document you are in. The "Copy" commands copy the contents to Clipboard without pasting.]
Open/Open New    1-20/List/List 1-10/Scrap/Pad/a-z,Alpha-Zulu [The "Open" commands open the 1-20, List, Scrap and Pad files while the "New" commands open a new copy of Notepad containing the requested file. You can add your own files to the Open, Cut/Copy, and Paste/Copy Global Macros.]

Copy    1-20/
List/List 1-10/Scrap/Pad/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/<WordPad Document>    to Clipboard
Copy Clipboard to    1-20/
List/List 1-10/Scrap/Pad/a-z,Alpha-Zulu/<WordPad Document>

Cut/Copy/Add    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to <Word PadDocument>    
[This and the next six macros are similar to the above Notepad commands, but they open files in WordPad instead of Notepad. In order to use the WordPad 1-10 files in the WordPad document list, you must add files named WordPad1, WordPad2 etc. to a folder called Store in My Documents.]
Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to <WordPadDocument>    
Open    <WordPadDocument>
Cut/Copy    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to <Word PadDocument>    Close    
[This and the next command do the same as the similar commands above, but close the document after copying to it.]
Cut/Copy    Top of/Rest of    Line/Paragraph/Document    to <WordPadDocument>    Close    
Add (Add This)/Add All    to    <WordPadDocument>    
[This does the same as the "Copy to" commands above, but pastes to the bottom of the WordPad document without putting line break in.]
 
WordPad Document:
WordPad1, WordPad2, WordPad3, WordPad4, WordPad5,WordPad6, WordPad7, WordPad8, WordPad9,WordPad10.

Cut/Copy/Add    All/This (Selection)/Line/Paragraph    to    Macro Window/Macro Window Two    
[This and the next command allow you to directly open and copy to the Macro Window files. "Cut" and "Copy" replace any existing text with what you are copying to the file. The "Add" commands copy to the bottom of the existing file. See the bottom of the WordPad section for an explanation of the Macro Window files.]
Open    Macro Window/Macro Window Two

Save (Save All)/Save This (Selection)    to    <Common Folders>    
[This copies a document or selection to a new WordPad file and launches the Save As window open to the folder you specify. You will probably want to name your own Common Files.]
