ptolemy.actor.lib.net.demo.Datagram.Datagram

This actor copies, to the system clipboard, the contents of any token received at its <i>input</i> port. It pastes, from the system clipboard to the <i>output</i> port, whenever it receives a token at the <i>trigger</i>. If both inputs receive tokens during the same firing, the paste is done before the copy. This ordering insures that the contents of the clipboard are not lost in the event of a simultaneous copy-paste operation. <p> NOTE: This actor has been tested only with an 8-bit character set as the Java default character set. Results are not known for systems configured for 16-bit Unicode characters.
