Cut, Copy, Paste

General

Most Operating Systems does provide a mechanism called "Clipboard" to enable data exchange between Applications. NextRecall could not access the local Clipboard, because of the foundations of Java. Upcoming Java Version 1.1 does offer such a functionality. NextRecall will ported to this version as soon it is available.

Currently the application has an internal clipboard, which can contain one key including subkeys. In the next paragraphs you will learn how to use it. Program output will be formatted as italic.
