wx:clipboard%

Superclass: wx:object%

There is one wx:clipboard% object -- wx:the-clipboard -- that manages the contents of the system-wide clipboard for cut-and-paste.

Data can be entered into the clipboard in one of two ways: by setting the current clipboard string, or by installing a wx:clipboard-client% object. When a client is installed, requests for clipboard data are re-directed to the client.

Data can be retrived from the clipboard as a string. When retreiving clipboard data, a data type string determines the format of this string. The availability of formats is determined by the current clipboard owner.

Methods:

• get-clipboard-client
• get-clipboard-data
• get-clipboard-string
• set-clipboard-client
• set-clipboard-string
