ACL to clear the Windows clipboard

delete_buffer -all;

clears Arbortext paste buffers -- but not apparently the Windows clipboard--so don't know if this helps.

Whacky. But I needed to do this an stumbled on a way how to do it. Maybe
it's useful to someone else.


# The following may have dependencies on sgmlselection, selectionsvc,
pastepreserve,
# and/or any other settings related to buffers, copying, pasting, etc.


# Create a temporary buffer and make it current.
set paste=junk

# write to that buffer. You could select and copy something if
# wherever you that is easy. Or you can just write a line of
# throw-away text to the buffer. Type "help insert_buffer" for
# a complete description of the syntax of this command.
insert_buffer("any string of text",0,"junk")

# Set the default buffer back to current.
set paste=default


I had to tell you now because it's Friday and my weekend will permanently
purge MY buffer and I won't remember I wanted to tell you come Monday ...
