GTK+ would simply manage a list of windows. - * Add a command for manipulating the clipboard. - Can be done with ECxclip$ on Unix, but other platforms have - better methods (e.g. PDCurses has clipboard extensions, GTK+ - has native clipboard support). On ncurses/UNIX we can fall back - to spawning xclip or copy xclip's functionality. - Unfortunately, not every UNIX has X11 (e.g. linux console, - OS X). What do we do on those systems? - This will also allow us to reverse clipboard modifications. Optimizations: * Add G_UNLIKELY to all error throws. |
