Under Lion, get the clipboard works so long as the clipboard only contains text.

If it contains an image, it freezes.

No, it takes a very long time, so you might think it freezes.

I had a picture on the clipboard, and after the script finished running, I had this as a result:

{TIFF picture:«data

And a whole bunch of hex characters that I'm not going to bother pasting, except for the end:

I am a pseudomasochist.. I like it when people pretend to beat me.

G'day Michelle

A very long time is right. I waited 10 minutes after copying a medium sized picture from iPhoto, and the force Quit window showed Applescript Editor as 'not responding', so I force quit it.

Interestingly, the Dictionary for Lion Finder shows this...

clipboard (specifier, r/o) : (NOT AVAILABLE YET) the Finder’s clipboard window

which makes me wonder if Mountain lion might introduce a Clipboard Window, or actually speed up getting the Clipboard.

Any thoughts anyone? Anyone trialling Mountain Lion?

Santa
