!Scrap
======
The !Scrap application is a tempoary storage area
used by applications to store documents and other
information while it is being transferred to another
application.
Some applications also use !Scrap to store other
temporary information (information which is not
being transferred to another application). These
applications may need !Scrap to have been seen
before they are run.
Error messages
==============
If an error message of the form "Can't transfer file
(use *Set Wimp$Scrap <filename>)" is given by an
application this means that the !Scrap application
has not yet been seen by the system. You should
open a directory display containing !Scrap then try
the operation again.
If the message "Protected Disc" is given when trying
to transfer information between applications. The
!Scrap application is probably on a floppy disc
which is write protected. Applications must be able
to write to the !Scrap application. Copy !Scrap to a
writable location, then double click the new !Scrap
to cause the copy to be used.
!Scrap cannot be used on a write protected floppy
disc or in a read-only location on a network.
