iPhone Gets Copy And Paste Solution, World Implodes
Source: Electric PigObviously the fabled iPhone copy and paste function is not courtesy of Apple, for whom it is deemed far down the list of priorities with MMS and not crashing every three minutes (damn your eyes, firmware 2.0!). It is rather the product of a lone programmer with the skills to provide an open source solution, allowing other developers to seamlessly integrate it into their own products.
Open Clip grabs any text marked to copy, places it gingerly into the iPhone’s storage compartment which then acts as a shared space which can be accessed by any other Open Clip compatible software. Simple really!
It is currently supported by a couple of programs including blogging software Wordpress and Twitellator, with more to follow as the source code is released into the public domain. We for one welcome it, anything which makes the iPhone Wordpress app remotely useful is a boon.
Omio updates from the bathtub coming soon!
