Re: [ease-dev] Feature request: clipboard support (or instead loading ar

["Paul D. Fernhout" <pdfernhout@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you. BTW, I did write a JavaScript script to try to put text in the clipboard and to be called from a context menu, but I got an NPE when running it when the script tried to create a Display with executeUI using this line of code (as pretty much the first thing it does):

   var display = new org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display();

When I tried that code without executeUI, or from the Rhino shell, I got a "An internal error occurred during: "Rhino". Not implemented [multiple displays]", and then the workbench recommended a restart. I have three displays on my development machine (Mac OS X) and so maybe there is some issue there...

I think your recent changes will be good enough for me for now. However, I've included the NPE trace from running the above code on the UI thread if it is of interest:

The biggest challenge of the 21st century is the irony of technologies of abundance in the hands of those still thinking in terms of scarcity.
