JN>What about for QEdit DOS ("TSE Jr." is a godawful name, and I won't use
it :)?  You may recall that when I last suggested this "feature"
(December of 1995!), you said you weren't aware as to how it could be
done.  I then told you that Jonathan de Boyne Pollard's Family Mode API
library (FAMAPI.ARJ) contains an include file (WINDOWS.H) which contains
a structure related to accessing the OS/2 System Clipboard from DOS.
Joe,
Haven't seen you since Consultant days!  FWIW, I've been
yelling for improvements to Qedit 4 for some time now with little
result. I'd have to say that, imo, Semware has moved on and TSE Pro
is their vehicle. Whatever macros are out there are out there!
Tis a pity, as I have both programs and TSE Pro is overkill for me
and I took it off the HD the over day. Best, Nick
