Command line Clipboard Access 1.10
The Command line Clipboard Access (CCA) programs are a set of
shareware programs that allow the OS/2 user to access the OS/2
clipboard from the command line in a full screen or windowed
OS/2 session.
These programs do not make any changes to the OS/2 INI files or create
any additional files on your hard drives. To install them, just copy
the two executable files to a directory in your OS/2 search path.
The access to the OS/2 clipboard is limited to ONE process at a time.
Thus you need to make certain that no other program is accessing the
clipboard when you run either program. Also, you need to wait until
they have completed until you try to access the clipboard with another
program.
The shareware version of these programs are fully functional, but they
add an identification line to the clipboard text.
When ToClip puts text into the OS/2 clipboard, it first inserts the
following line.
"ToClip 1.0 Registration removes this line"
When FClip2 gets text into the OS/2 clipboard, it appends the
following line to the end of the text.
"FClip2 1.0 Registration removes this line"
The registered versions do not add the lines.
Program descriptions:
toclip.exe - puts text into the OS/2 clipboard via redirection
or a pipe from the command line. If it is executed without
any arguments, it assumes you are going to type the text and
will accept text until you enter a control-Z and a newline.
If you enter a text string as a command line arugment, the
string will be copied to the clipboard. If the string
contains blanks, you must enclose it in quotation marks. The
quotation marks will be stripped before the text is put into
the OS/2 clipboard.
examples:
dir /b | toclip
toclip < file
toclip "This line will be put into the OS/2 clipboard"
fclip2.exe - gets text from the command OS/2 clipboard and routes
it to stdout. Thus you can redirect or pipe the output of
this utility.
examples:
fclip2 > file
fclip2 | program
pmclip.cb - A Brief macro to allow the OS/2 version of Brief to access
the OS/2 clipboard with CCA.
boxer.txt - Boxer/OS2 macros to allow Boxer/OS2 users to access the
the OS/2 clipboard with CCA
