title: How to check value pasted to clipboard with AppleScript
body: <p>I'm an AppleScript noob, and I really want to do something nice with it. How can I make an AppleScript that runs at all times checking for clipboard changes? What I want to do is check the clipboard, see if it's a certain value, and make a web request with that clipboard value.</p>
  
  <p>This is what I currently have, it just gets the value that's in the current clipboard</p>
  
  <pre><code>get the clipboard
  set the clipboard to "my text"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help will be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.</p>
