[X4U] Clipboard question

[Keith Whaley]

<smile>
It seems that would work.
The clipboard doesn't care what is copied to it.
If you want a "space" copied to it, do so. Like any other text character, it 
will copy over and replace what's already there.
I just selected the "C" in the text below, did a command-c to "copy' it the 
clipboard, and after repositioning the cursor, did a command-v to "paste," 
it showed up at the cursor.
That works with a space as well. Try it...
