Windows Clipboard

 [1/9] from: mike::myers::cybarite::com at: 24-Oct-2000 7:10


Can someone advise the format for reading and writing the windows clipboard? I can't scare it up from the online documentation or Elan's book or my email log or ...

Hi Mike write clipboard:// my-string my-string: read clipboard:// Note that whatever is to be written to the clipboard must be a text string. HTH -Larry

Hi Larry! Is this code for VIEW only? This is what I get:
>> write clipboard:// "clipboard test"
** Access Error: Invalid port spec: clipboard://. ** Where: write clipboard:// "clipboard test"
>>
I presume a port has to be declared or initialised to a start value somehow..

Could this be a difference in versions of Windows? I am getting the error mentioned below, and I am on WinNT. If it worked, this feature would be too cool. I don't know offhand what I'd use it for, but I'm sure I'd be able to think of something. - Michael Jelinek

My understanding is that it works on View not on Core. I'm guessing the reason being that such a function is quite platform dependent. BTW, I'm on NT. REBOL/View 0.10.38.3.1 3-Oct-2000 Copyright 2000 REBOL Technologies. All rights reserved. Type DEMO to run demo if it is disabled
