Re: nwc1 clipboard uses binary format Reply #2 – 20 years ago Wasn't a question, but was a valuable point. The NWC2 clipboard format is designed to be human-readable and editable as plain text. This allows it to be manipulated by any programming language that can esily manipulate plain text - and such a feature is indeed an add-on to NWC2. But the NWC1 clipboard format was not designed for that purpose (and, of course, is unlikely to be changed!).user111 makes good observations, from time to time. Quote Selected

Re: nwc1 clipboard uses binary format Reply #4 – 20 years ago The point, I believe, is that even though NWC2 can open NWC files, clipboard from NWC1 cannot be sent by e-mail as plain text to a remote user of NWC2. Not everybody has web access other than plain-text e-mail.But that's the way it is. Quote Selected
