CLIP.EXE is the default engine for CLIPW.  CLIP.VBS (using WSH) is an alternative (generally speaking, a bit faster than CLIP.EXE in Windows 9x).  The following instructions pertain to VBS only; for CLIP.EXE instructions, see /XY4/CLIPWXY4.INF or /XY3/CLIPWXY3.TXT, in this ZIPfile.

VBS Installation
--- ------------
MDULWin32 PrerequisitesMDNM:
CLIP for Windows uses Windows Script Host [WSH] (already installed on all Win32 machines except early Win95 [can be added/updated! - see "Windows Scripting Host [WSH] Resources", below])
CLIP.VBS, located in Editor's directory
AutoItX3.DLL (by Jonathan Bennett, at http://www.hiddensoft.com/) is a freeware Active X control that can read the clipboard. AutoItX3.DLL must be located in the system directory %WINDIR%\system[32], and then MDBOmust be registeredMDNM (one-time only) with your operating system, i.e. command from DOS:
	REGSVR32 AutoItX3.dll<cr>
Reserved Filenames: CLIP.TXT and CLIP1.TXT in Editor's directory

Download MDBObothMDNM required external files (CLIP.VBS and AutoItX3.dll):
	http://www.serve.com/xywwweb/CLIPW32.ZIP
(The ZIPfile includes both Xy3+ and Xy4 versions of CLIPW32)

MDULWin32 LimitationsMDNM:
Maximum Clip Size (theoretic)=2Gb; real limit=~500Kb
 (CSCRIPT.EXE crashes above this size)
Ascii-0 is interpreted as End_Of_Data by the Clipboard
 and terminates a Clip (Ascii-0 [00h] occurs very rarely
 in XyWrite 3-byte charset)
