Parameter Type   Description
Function result  String in Returns the text (if any) present in the pasteboard

Get text from pasteboard returns the text present in the pasteboard.

If the pasteboard contains enriched text (for example in RTF format), the text will keep its attributes when it is dropped or pasted, if the destination area is compatible.

If the text is correctly extracted, OK is set to 1; otherwise OK is set to 0.
