I don't think you can do this directly in DJGPP (or at least, I don't
know how). However, if you use Richard Dawe's libwin plus first load
the NTOLDAPP TSR/DLL combo, you can do so (see the cliptest.c example
in libwin's .ZIP). I tested this on XP, and it worked fine. Not ideal,
I guess, but it does work. I think some people here are trying to
suggest (indirectly) that you should use Win32 stuff for Win32
features (e.g. Cygwin or MinGW) since DJGPP is only a DOS compiler.
DOS support in modern NT-based Windows (2k, XP, Vista) is not what it
used to be, so you have to work around the limitations.
