Where did I say it is the same as your want??

According to the description, it looks like a real-time clipboard monitor that pastes (appends) every clipboard item into a given document.
I believe this can be implemented by means of writing a corresponding Python program to be executed by the PythonScript plugin.
In general, such Python program can be written by anyone who is familiar with Python. You don’t need Notepad++ developers who deals with C++ or C# for this.
Probably the most complicated part of such Python program is to monitor the clipboard and extract items from it.
Googling for “python monitor clipboard” gives this, for example:

It might be even easier to use AutoHotKey for this task:

And again, it’s rather a question to users familiar with AutoHotKey than to Notepad++ developers. -
The big question is, when are you going to write your own?
No excuses now, like “I don’t know how to program” You’ve had years since you made the request to become a proficient and capable programmer, so don’t be lazy and do it yourself.
That fact that you did post it in github forum request and it wasn’t implemented, whatever the reason should tell you that no one but you sees a need for it, and in the tradition of open source, if someone isn’t interested in it, it won’t be written by them, so your only option to get that feature is to write it yourself.
So there’s your answer, as candidly as you have been in your statements here, I am happy to give you the answer you apparently need to hear because you haven’t yet grasped the answer that is just so clear to anyone else. Insults get you insults in return, so next time choose your words and battles better. :)

Hmm, well, I’ve found the idea of the Clipboard Monitor to be interesting enough to experiment with and to include it into NppExec Manual.
My English is not perfect as usual :) -

I had a quick check and I think your English would put most English speaking people to shame.
I easily understood the process, there weren’t any spelling mistakes (that I saw) and it was easy enough to follow, if I should want this action.
Good on you

same old backward & unappreciative people for my improvement suggestions
shame
time for me to leave and stick to other programs I reckon -

If you had a better option than the totality of function Notepad++ currently provides, you’d have done this already.
time for me to leave
This is probably for the best, as the rest of us will benefit by getting rid of the annoyance that is you.

Same old rudeness and entitlement behavior one would expect of someone with a narcissistic personality disorder. Bye.

Notepad++ is used by people worldwide. This results in people from many cultures participating in the forums. Many of the participants don’t use English as their main language. People with varied technical or technology backgrounds, cultural backgrounds, and sometimes less than perfect use of English, post things on the forums that can seem odd.
Sometimes rocks or flower pedals are tossed into into the stream. People puzzle over the ripples and floating pedals, some for a moment, and others get stuck.

@mkupper ,
Perhaps, but that sounded like outright hostility, but…be that as it may, I will be back to lurking. Thanks. -

You are amazing! I simply could not use Notepad++ without NppExec.
Cheers.
