SciCalc stops paste from working

I’m putting this here as the bugtracker seems to be out ofcommission at the moment.

Pasting the clipboard can fail when SciCalc is running. The reason is that SciCalc doesn’t keep track of whether it actually holds the clipboard or not.

This means that SciCalc will always respond to Message_DataRequest and if it gets the message before the application that does hold the clipboard then the paste will fail. You’ll get whatever was copied last in SciCalc or simply nothing.

The bug can be easily demonstrated using the RO 5.22 Edit. Start SciCalc first, then Edit. Create/open a text file, select text and copy to clipboard. Open a second text in Edit and hit c-V, the paste fails. Quit SciCalc and try paste again, this time it succeeds.

Oops, that’ll be my mistake. I’ll take a look.

Thanks, Chris. If you need any help or some testing done just let me know.

Found an oddity in PROCcalwin_firstopen, both FORs in there are missing their NEXTs.
