I have probably not understand the task. What you want to do? Mark something outside of Emacs, copy (CTRL-C) and yank (paste) it in Emacs buffer? But what means "non-interactively yank". The (current-kill 0) puts content of system clipboard into Emacs kill-ring and (clipboard-yank) puts this into buffer, or you can access to this text via kill-ring variable with (car kill-ring). Or (substring-no-properties (car kill-ring)) or directly (substring-no-properties (current-kill 0)) - in case you don't want text properties. regards Marc
