Hi,
the "put link in clipboard" would be a great feature to create anchors in the body editor! Unfortunately it doesn't work with Linux (tested with Firefox). The Javascript console shows
clip:<a href ...
but I cannot paste the link, neither with Ctrl-V nor with the middle mouse button (which is the standard clipboard in Unix).
I can't test if it works in Windows, so I'm not sure if the feature just doesn't work in the 6.x release or just not in Linux. In the latter case I hope it can be made linux-compatible, because this feature really is nice!
cu,
Frank

Anonymous (not verified) commentedI had to learn that Opera just does not support this :-( and for Firefox you have to allow this explicitely. Therefore I've written to small patches: One to alert Firefox users when and how they must enable copying to clipboard.
The other one warns Opera users that the clipboard is not supported but to give them a similar functionality, the patch replaces the address of file nodes by their link. I.e., I changed
to
if the browser is Opera and the file is in the database. Thus, Opera users can right-click on the file name in either the attachment list or the filetree (since they don't get the webfm context menu, see http://drupal.org/node/246918) and copy the files adress to the clipboard by Opera "Copy link address".
I'm not sure if you like that because I don't know if changing the file nodes address changes something else. Drag&drop etc. all still seemed to work, but you will know better :-)
If this patch doesn't destroy anything else, maybe it could be used as clipboard replacement for Opera users.

andremolnar commentedJust opening this up for the 6.x version so that it doesn't get missed.
I'm going to make a broader release that merges 5.x changes into 6.x to bring it up to 2.13 soon.
