Is there anyway to access and manipulate clipboard on a Google Docs document?

I checked in Google App Script docs and blogs and couldn't find a way for this yet..

The idea is to wrap a fixed text string around copied text, so copying:

AAAAAA

would let the user paste:

" AAAAAAA " (appended_text_string)

So users could copy text quotes out of a given document, and paste the text in Powerpoint with quotation marks and some additional text data appended around it.

No. There is no way to do this. Google Drive offers a web clipboard, but it not accessible through the API.

See Is there any Web API for Google web clipboard?
