OS X supports arbitrarily and even uniquely named pasteboards (for use as an IPC mechanism).

That's probably because accessing the clipboard/pasteboards without access to Objective-C is not documented and may not even be possible (pbpaste and friends link the Objective-C frameworks to get the job done). I saw that ObjC compiling has been added to R-devel so it may now be not so bad... > > -- > Brian D.
