Greetings,

sorry for posting to a bunch of lists, some of which i may not be
subscribed to. please write to me directly since i forget which lists
i am receiving.

i have spent the entire day trying to figure out how to copy to the
system clipboard on the Mac OSX (darwin) non of the CPAN modules seems
to work for darwin. i have tried clipboard which is supposed to work
with most OSs but i get all sorts of errors that i have not been able
to resolve in hours and hours of attempts. i am just trying to use the
example code in the clipboard module which works fine for win32 but
nothing i can modify in the module gets it to work on Mac OSX.

i have also tried mac pasteboard but there is not PPM for it and i
could not get it installed myself.

anything else that might work? i am using TKx and need to copy from an
entry widget to other applications. no problems copying and pasting
with the app, it is the system clipboard that i need to copy to.
