In the last few days I got a new clipboard system up and running for
Mozile 0.8. Copy operations will change the system clipboard, but Cut
and Paste operations only have access to a document-local clipboard.
There might be a way around this limitation in IE using execCommand
() to access the system clipboard, or parhaps in some other way. The
execCommand trick could also work in Mozilla when the designMode is
enabled, but there are generally security restrictions protecting the
system clipboard from unprivileged scripts. I haven't tried this yet.
If anyone has idea on better integration with the system clipboard,
let us know.
I'm out of town until Tuesday, so I won't be on IRC and won't check
my email very often.
