copy of the clipboard

  G4C -- copy of the clipboard

Hi Dimitris,

Under $$Drop Internal variables in the manual I find :

"TYPE    This can be TEXT, if the data dropped was a piece of text, or
FILE if the data was a bunch of files, which would be the case if you
dragged files from Explorer or a directory listview, for example. "

Is there a method of finding if the clipboard has image information on
it.  If there is, it should be added to the manual.  Some of the apps
place other image data like SVG or WMF or XML or other custom
information.

I want to copy what is already in the clipboard, in memory or a file
during my run of script, which alters the clipboard contents.  At the
end of my script run I want to reinstate what was already on the
clipboard.  Any hints would be of help.  Thank you.
