The app I use is the first | second thing in my scratchpad, originally addressed to Athanasius. Please pay attention to the "shortcomings" section. The whole point originally was to quickly copy some brief code to the Windows clipboard, maybe edit it there with a clipboard editor, then paste it into a command-line window and see if it runs. I think my approach today would be different, but if you feel you could use it or any part of it, please feel free. (Update: The app runs on Windows 7 and I think I had it running on XP originally. What happens on 8 or 10 is anybody's guess.)
