SET CLIPBOARD
Enables the clipboard for copying, cutting, and pasting, so you can
transfer text between EVE and other DECwindows applications.
Example:
The following commands enable the DECwindows clipboard, select the entire
buffer, and then copy the selection to the clipboard, rather than to the
Insert Here buffer:
Command: SET CLIPBOARD
Command: SELECT ALL
Command: STORE TEXT
Usage notes:
o The clipboard setting affects the following commands and keys.
WPS keys do NOT use the clipboard, regardless of the setting.
EVE Commands EDT Keys
------------------------------ -------------
COPY STORE TEXT BOX COPY Append (KP9)
CUT REMOVE BOX CUT EDT Repl (GOLD-KP9)
PASTE INSERT HERE BOX PASTE Subs (GOLD-ENTER)
o You can use the clipboard only on DECwindows (typically when you invoke
EVE using /INTERFACE=DECWINDOWS). Default is SET NOCLIPBOARD, which
uses EVE's Insert Here buffer.
o The setting applies in all buffers. To save your setting for future
editing sessions, use SAVE ATTRIBUTES to create a section file or to
create or update a command file (see help on Attributes). However, for
routine editing within EVE, using the Insert Here buffer may be faster,
depending on the amount of text involved.
