clipboard_has_text

Returns whether there is any text in the clipboard.

Syntax:

clipboard_has_text();

Returns: Boolean

Description

This function will return true if the clipboard contains text or false if it does not.

NOTE: This function is only valid for the Windows target.

Example:

if clipboard_has_text()
   {
   str = clipboard_get_text();
   clipboard_set_text("");
   }

The above code checks the clipboard for text and if it contains any, it is read as a string into the variable "str". Finally, the clipboard is cleared by setting it to an empty string.
