Its actually implemented in SciTE rather than Scintilla by the ugly technique of writing out an RTF file and then copying that to the clipboard. It only works on Windows due to the simpler clipboard API compared to X and since RTF is a common format on Windows. Other projects sometimes include code from SciTE even though the code isn't really written for reuse. Neil -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
