How to swap clipboard contents for current selection in Visual Studio

Question

Does anyone know of a simple way to swap whatever is currently in my clipboard with the current mouse selection?

So lets say my clipboard has the text Foo in it.

On a line of code public void DoBar() { ... I have Bar selected

I'd like a simple key combination that changes DoBar() to DoFoo() and leaves me with the text Bar"in the clipboard (so that if I was to press CTRL-V it would paste Bar).

Note: I don't want to have to fiddle with anything graphical (i.e. clipboard switcher, paste ring). I'm just after a simple key-combination (so CTRL-X: Cut, CTRL-C: Copy, CTRL-V: Paste, CTRL-B?: Swap)

Bonus points for a general solution that works throughout Windows.

Answer 1

I know you didn't want a solution that involved installing anything, but I landed on this page with the same question, so I decided to post an answer ( that does include a gui )

install AutoHotKey!
