Hi, John,

Attached is a modest candidate.  It displays the text currently on  
the Mac clipboard in a simple, scrolling pane, and when the clipboard  
contents are changed, the widget updates accordingly.

This is in contrast to the os-x Finder's "show clipboard", which  
produces a static, brain-damaged clipboard window which does not  
update when the clipboard contents change.

For effective use as a Dashboard widget, its "squeak app-window" size  
should be just large enough to enclose the little scrolling text pane.

Cheers,

   -- Scott


PS:  Incorporating Sophie's ability to contend with graphical  
clipboard contents would be a logical next step.
