I can't paste text from one IDE window to another.
Yes, you can do this in one window, but it would be good to copy text to programs

You might be able to do it by having an app that adds event listeners waiting for some keyboard command and then hyjacking the screen and allow you to select screen data and get a copy of it and then another command could raise key press events from the copied data. It might be hard to do that screen data stealing part, but I think it would be possible. It would end up being another thing the computer has to run constantly though. I would think doing it with a new app would be easier than re-programming all the other apps, but it would take some work. And I don't even know everything about this incredible work, so I could be totally wrong, but it's an idea.

well then, if you know how to do something with lua, try making a multi-window clipboard yourself.
and why not publish it on the store
