Hi Jeff. 

How about something like this in the code so that it doesn't just clamb up
entirely?

var

string clip

let clip = GetClipboardText()
if clip then
        Say (clip,OT_LINE)
;For Braille users:

BrailleMessage (clip)
Else
        Say ("No text in the clipboard.", OT_ERROR)
EndIf

;Of course, the down side is that someone could put that very text into the
clipboard, but I'm sure that can be 
;dealt with in many ways, like playing a sound instead.

Hi tony.

well, it appears not, not here anywayz. and actually given your cool idea,
the script/function is a bit less than perfect in one sense.
it conceivably would've been a more complete/optimal script had it either 
done this, or at very least reported either something like, "no textual 
content," when it couldn't find anything, or better yet, if it could test 
for the name of file(s) on clipboard, if past a certain number, to maybe 
auto shove their names into virtual viewer, or something? but, it just says 
nothing, when I press it and files are on the clipboard eh. Great idea 
though!

it's just using a simple builtin FUnction GetClipboardText, which is just a 
string function it appears eh. description for it says:

Retrieves text from the clipboard that is in standard ANSI format.  Each 
line ends with a carriage return/linefeed (CR-LF) combination.

whether it could be tweaked to deal with objects, I'm unsure at this point 
and cannot look into it myself right now.
 hth.
