Question about "New from Clipboard"

WPPK's icon

Hi,

I recentely tried to open a max patch by copying the text (cmd+C) to the clipboard and then using the "New from Clipboard" menu option to open it. When I did that, it just opened the text in a text edit window and not the actual patch.

Am I missing something?

as long as you copy all the compressed text including the header
(begin max5 patch blah blah
---------------------------)
the you should be able to create the patch from the clipboard...
