This is true, and U2's CLIP.EXE does code-page conversions in either
direction (copying from XyWrite or pasting into XyWrite), no extra
keystrokes required, and it will append (or prepend) multiple clips
to the clipboard. This, of course, assumes Xy4 or later with U2
installed. Kari's method will appeal to Xy3 users, and is also an
option for users who've reported problems getting U2's CLIP.EXE to
work in virtual environments.
