[Lazarus] HTML on clipboard
G'day, Just found this code on the wiki... http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Office_Automation#Copy_HTML_to_the_clipboard On Windows with Microsoft products at least, this doesn't work... What's required is more complex: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa767917%28v=vs.85%29.aspx However, I can't see that code being posted onto the wiki without testing, so before I correct the wiki, I'd like to know under what conditions the wiki code is good for... I think it was Mattias that submitted that code to the wiki... Mattias: Do you know or remember which platforms and applications that code worked with? I'm thinking that the code on the wiki is probably good for Linux and possibly Mac, and am just looking for confirmation before I update the wiki...

AFAIR an example is Linux, OpenOffice. I don't know if OO still supports this. Sweet. I've left the original code in as a quick google shows at least several python libraries out there that use the the 'text/html' mime on the clipboard as well, so there's possibly more targets than just OO.
