You need to create a script in a directory called 'scripts' inside your user settings directory, which is listed 5th in Wing's About box. Then add a *.py file there with the code, which would be something like:
import wingapi
def my_new_command():
# implementation here
# Add this command to the editor context menu
my_new_command.contexts = [wingapi.kContextEditor()]
The first time it's added, you need to do Reload All Scripts in the Edit menu. After that, Wing auto-reloads scripts if you edit them in Wing. Output/errors are shown in the Messages tool under the Scripts channel.I'm not sure how you would implement showing the clipboard manager, but if there's a command line you can call to show it then it might be something like this in the body of the def:
cmdline = 'clipman'
cmd_id = wingapi.gApplication.AddOSCommand(cmdline, None, None, {})
wingapi.gApplication.ExecuteOSCommand(cmd_id)
You can bind commands you add to Wing's command set with scripts like this by using the User Interface > Keyboard > Custom Key Bindings preference, same as for any other command.Scripting to extend Wing is documented here: https://wingware.com/doc/scripting
