I can then handle the content of that file to convert each pair of bytes as needed to end up with UTF-8 or even Ascii. All I want to do is to be able to read in the text/html format from the clipboard and process it in lua. However I can not do anything with the Light user Data returned from the Clipboard using Lua, that I can discover.

UTF-16 strings are unsigned short* arrays, strings in Lua are char* arrays. Something is not right. Is there a link for the documentation of that library?

Sorry I did not make myself clear. The UTF-16 function takes a "string" and will not work with a "light user data" so I need to know how to convert the light user data from the iup.clipboard to a string using just lua. -- Jane.
