Software information: Clipboard

Status

Current status: beta

Last stable version: n/a

Overview

The Clipboard module implements a part of the RISC OS drag and drop protocol, which includes global cut and paste type operations.

The full specification can be found here and some more information from the author of the changes in version 0.09 (the first fully working version) can be found here.

Note: there are two demo/test applications which can be downloaded from our application downloads pages (in the Programming section). These are called GetClip and PutClip which illustrate how the Clipboard’s API works in practise. Both of these programs can also be found with the Clipboard module sources.

Installation Instructions

Ideally, you should place this module into your PreDesk directory in order for it to be loaded before the desktop starts.
