Interesting.  I'd like to know what the technique is here!
(Found the relevant assembler lines in your Minitime source, but I'm 
not enough of a programmer to understand it.)

On the RiscPC I had a Datapower script that built a string from 
various fields in my database -- e.g. Fred Graute <fjgraute@xxxxxxxxx>  
-- and put it on the clipboard so that I could then paste it into some 
other app.  Didn't work on the Iyonix or newer machines, because Ro4 
seemed to have clipboard routines that didn't exist yet in Ro5.  
(Please correct me if I'm behind the times now.)

Any chance, Fred, that your put-on-the-clipboard technique could be 
added to the next OS version from Rool?  Or published as a library 
module or something?
