I started writing more documentation on the Scrap module at one point, but
it is difficult to do without a Mac box to try things out on. This expands on what was there only a little bit; hopefully someone with a Mac can work on this as well!

The Scrap\index{Scrap Manager} Manager supports the simplest form of

cut \&\ paste operations on the Macintosh. It can be use for both

inter- and intra-application clipboard operations.
|

|
||||
The \module{Scrap} module provides low-level access to the functions
|
||||
of the Scrap Manager. It contains the following functions:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{InfoScrap}{}
|
||||
Return current information about the scrap. The information is
|
||||
encoded as a tuple containing the fields \code{(\var{size},
|
||||
\var{handle}, \var{count}, \var{state}, \var{path})}.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{tableii}{l|l}{var}{Field}{Meaning}
|
||||
\lineii{size}{Size of the scrap in bytes.}
|
||||
\lineii{handle}{Resource object representing the scrap.}
|
||||
\lineii{count}{Serial number of the scrap contents.}
|
||||
\lineii{state}{Integer; positive if in memory, \code{0} if on
|
||||
disk, negative if uninitialized.}
|
||||
\lineii{path}{Filename of the scrap when stored on disk.}
