That's what I thought. You need to know the size of the clipboard file
before you can call scrap_rtxt. Seems a bit pointless to me. I might stick
with my modified version of HW code, that will load the clipboard of
whatever size.

Besides I can't get a call to scrap_rtxt to compile :

      long filelength;
      long maxlength = 65535;
      char *buf = NULL;
      char *p = NULL;
      *p = scrap_rtxt (&buf, &filelength, maxlength);

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
hwWind.c: In function `vTab_evKeybrd':
hwWind.c:2487: warning: implicit declaration of function `scrap_rtxt'

If I add cflib.h it complains about repeat declarations. grrr.
