...hook into the Clipboard Notification Chain?
Author: Theodor Kleynhans
{
*Just create a new form and call it ClipFormats.
*Drop a TButton and call it btnUpdate.
*Drop a TListBox and call it lbFormats.
Then just add the code below and hook up all the event handlers.
All it does is display all the formats currently on the clipboard and
updates as soon as the clipboard changes.
* Erstelle eine Neue Form und nenne sie ClipFormats.
* Plaziere einen TButton auf ihr und nenne ihn btnUpdate.
* Plaziere eine TListBox auf ihr und nenne sie lbFormats.
Dann füge den untenstehenden Code hinzu und linke alle Ereignis-Prozedure.
Es zeigt dann alle Formate an, welche sich momentan in der Zwischenablage
befinden und wird aktualisiert, sobald sich der Inhalt der Zwischenablage ändert.
