What does this tell us?
It tells us that for some clipboard managers, you need to try the
solution Pierre mentioned. The choice of software components that
makes Linux so appealing to its users is also the reason that Rev
doesn't work with everything. If you're using one of the more
universally popular managers then bug-report it.
I know that when MetaCard was in active development, the script editor
in Linux worked fine because Dr Raney did all his development on that
platform. So what's happened in between is that the clipboard manager
has changed, or you are using one he wasn't using.
BTW, you can save yourself some trouble next time if you just do
something like this from the message box:
put the script of btn 1 into url ("file:myScript.txt")
I know you shouldn't have to, but it will save you some time.
Thanks; Yes it will . . . :)
Although I do wonder why most Linux apps seem not to jalouse at any of the
clipboard managers that come as standard with GNOME, KDE, XFCE, LXCD and
so: just been through about 5 Window managers trying a 'cocktail' of Linux
apps. While RunRev jalouses at all of them without 'fiddling'.
