Philip Thomas recently asked if it was possible to cut and paste text from
other windows into a Windows Icon program. In general it isn't, but I
forgot to mention that the new Windows native facilities include a function
EditRegion() that places a Windows text edit control on an Icon window, and
it is easy to cut, copy and paste to and from the clipboard using this edit
region.
So far, the best example program that makes use of this capability is the
Wi programming environment, whose source is available with the latest
Windows Icon distribution. Wi supports cutting, copying and pasting text
to and from other Windows applications.
