[Cuis-dev] ExtendedClipboard package

[Bernhard Pieber]

Hi,

I just found out that by using the latest (not yet released) VM build, copying works. I took the VM from here:
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/actions/workflows/macos.yml

Make sure to take a build labelled Cog, not virtend, otherwise the fonts in existing images look much bigger. I tested with this:
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/suites/14338173951/artifacts/807073212

Probably the fact that a newer VM is required for the ExtendedClipboard package should be documented somewhere. I am not sure what the best place for that would be? Or maybe show a warning when loading ExtendedClipboard.pck.st when the plugin is outdated? What do you think?

Cheers,
Bernhard
