Ok, I have been writing a program that outputs the current clipboard to a dumb terminal. Currently, I have it working so it outputs the current clipboard to the next line in sequence, provided it is less than 80 chars, but when it gets more than that, it doesn't output correctly...

I am also having a problem with it not starting on the far left.

Tomorrow, I will post the code for it.

Well, that isn't mine, but it is close....

Mine doesn't support the different text sizes, and bold etc... , at least I don't think it does.

They are what went to old CPM computers. I have one, still functional, but the disks all went bad, so I have to get some more...
