Hrmmm.. Since I am re-reading "Snow Crash" I'll go with my two favorite from that book.

"Condensing fact from the vapor of nuance"

and the wise observation of when to concede an argument:

"In a fight for possession of a sword, the guy with the handle wins."

Ok.. here it is:

ClipCopy

Pretty simple to use:

* This will copy the output from dir /b to clipboard
dir /b | clipcopy

* This will do the same but echo out to stdout at the same time ( like tee )
dir /b | clipcopy -e

* This will dump the text contents of the clipboard to stdout
clipcopy -g

* So you can dump the clipboard contents to a file like this
clipcopy -g > clipboard.txt

* You can also put strings directly on the clipboard like this
clipcopy this is going to the clipboard

Well, that is about all it does, you can type clipcopy -h for usage..

I compiled it with VS 2005 SP1 so you probably need the runtime if you don't already have it, if you do need it you can get it HERE

I wrote a small command line app in C++ I use all the time to do this.. If you are interested I could throw it up on my website..
