COPY puts a string, cell array, or numerical array into the clipboard,
from where it can easily be imported by other programs.
Usage:
copy(x)
copy(...,dec,sep,lf)
x can be a numerical array (one or two dimensional), a cell array, a
string, or a handle to a figure. The program does not handle other
variable classes, such as struct etc. and also is not suitable for arrays
with more than two dimensions.
Optional arguments:
dec Single character that indicates the decimal separator. Default is
the period ('.').
sep Single character that indicates how horizontal neigbors of a
matrix or cell array are separated. Default is the tabulator code
(char 9).
lf Single character that indicates how rows are separated. (lf
stands for line feed). Default is the line feed code (char 10).
Examples:
copy('One small step for a man.') pushes just this string to the
clipboard.
copy([1.2,-500]) pushes '1.2 -> -500' to the clipboard
(-> is the tabulator code).
copy([1.2,-500],',','&') pushes '1,2 & -500' to the clipboard.
f = figure; surf(membrane); copy(f) copies the figure to the clipboard.
