StoreClips
==========
PURPOSE
Stores the contents of clipboards to files. There are different
ways to specify clipboard units you want to store. Each clipboard
is stored in its according file called "T:clipboard.xxx", where xxx
is the number of the unit. For instance, if you store clipboard
unit 0, you'll get a file called "T:clipboard.000". Empty clipboard
units will not be stored (there's simply no file for it). The
program will inform you which unit has been stored in a file. In
most cases you'll get IFF files, because its recommended to use IFF
structures within the clipboards.
The program cannot set clipboard contents! It simply stores the
contents and thats all.
USAGE
SYNTAX: StoreClip [start [end]]
Possible combinations:
· StoreClip
This will store all the 256 clipboard units to the files
"T:clipboard.000", "T:clipboard.001", ..., "T:clipboard.255".
Note that empty clipboards don't generate files. If you are using
the standard clipboard mechanism in all the programs, you might
only get one file for unit 0 called "T:clipboard.000".
· StoreClip start
This only stores the clipboard with number 'start'. Acceptable
values are between 0 and 255. The resulting file will be
"T:clipboard.<start>".
· StoreClip start end
This allowes you to limit the range for storing clipboards. For
instance
StoreClip 0 9
only will store the clipboards 0 to 9 to the according files (if
something is in them)
· StoreClip ?
Simply shows you the syntax.

MISC
The archive contains the source code, an executable and this
.readme file. All of them are ©ed by me.
Compiled with SAS/C 6.58 with no special parameters, so I believe
that using another compiler only leads to varying the include file
names.
Suggestions are welcome, but I don't think about extending the
program, because the purpose of storing the contents is fully
accomplished.
