                              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 İed 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.
