 10.7.19  10:58 pm - im pretty sure you can do some real funky applescript stuff. like to put it into a file you can run `osascript -e 'the clipboard as record' >file` in terminal. possibly to extract it again you could run `osascript -e "set the clipboard to $(cat file)"`. i dont know
any way you can explain or link to that explained a little more definitively? (like without the 'i don't know' .... with terminal commands i'd like to eliminate the guesswork if i can ...)
