title: ActiveX / XPCOM equivalent for Google Chrome
body: <p>Is there any way in Google Chrome to access the clipboard (i.e. get and set content of clipboard)? Internet Explorer allows for this by using ActiveX and I got it working in Firefox via XPCOM, I am wondering if there is any way to do this in Chrome?</p>
  
  <p>What I want is to be able to intercept the "paste" events in JavaScript and pre-process the content of the clipboard before it's being pasted into the website's textarea (or RTE in my case).</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any help</p>
