Wow 😯

My hack was like 30 chars 😉

I'm still thinking gambas may have a way.
Maybe a function that launches a separate process as a daemon or something
till its contents are read or the available clipboard contents change?

I can dream,  certainly something I want in my apps so I'm going to look
into it some more.
