Writes a string to the clipboard in plain-text format. Specifying either no value or an empty string in the first argument will simply clear the clipboard of CF_TEXT data.

This function requires Presentation Manager to be active, although the REXX program itself need not be running in a PM process.

Arguments

  1. String to be written to the clipboard (DEFAULT: "")
  2. Flag indicating whether other clipboard formats should be cleared:
    Y = yes, call WinEmptyClipbrd() before writing text (DEFAULT)
    N = no, leave (non-CF_TEXT) clipboard data untouched

Return Value

1 on success, 0 on failure
