available-clipboard-formats

Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: nil

Returns a list of the clipboard formats that are currently on the Windows clipboard. When a copy is done, applications typically clear all values from the clipboard and then post only those formats that apply to the object being copied. If rich text was most recently copied to the clipboard, then the list returned from this function may be (:text :rich-text). The only valid clipboard formats at this time are :text, :rich-text, and :pixmap. The :pixmap format reflects the "device-independent bitmap" Windows clipboard format; Common Graphics does not support the "device-dependent bitmap" format.
