in thread Move/Copy files using Clipboard!

Wow! Hope it will be official soon :)

But, err, where did you find this patch? Couldn't find that on cpan... only http://search.cpan.org/~jdb/libwin32/Clipboard/Clipboard.pm (which is v0.52)

Update: Seems like its you're personal update, or?

    But, err, where did you find this patch?

    I just finished writing it. I wanted this myself a couple of years ago, but couldn't get it to work. This time I did.

    Please let me know how you get on with it. If it works for you also, then I'll forward the patch to whomever owns it (there seem to be two owners?), and it's up to them whether they wish to add it.

      So... you have actually compiled and tested it? Or, how do you know this works? I was planing of looking more into this when I get home today... see if I can add that do clipboard.dll (?) somehow... :) Would actually be a nice learning process... Hard maybe, but yet interesting... Hopefully, I dont have to recompile the whole Win32 module!

        Yes, it is tested--under XP, in conjuntion with 5.8.4 and 5.8.5.

        Do you compile your own modules?

        Do you know how to apply a patch to a module distribution?
