                which is present only in
                  src/plugins/ClipboardExtendedPlugin/ClipboardExtendedPlugin.c, a departure from
                  the house style which would have put it in
                  platforms/Cross/plugins/ClipboardExtendedPlugin/ClipboardExtendedPlugin.h; no doubt John had
                  his reasons.

                  

                  Use platforms/iOS/plugins/ClipboardExtendedPlugin/sqMacExtendedClipboard.m
                  & platforms/win32/plugins/ClipboardExtendedPlugin/sqWin32ExtendedClipboard.c
                  as guides. The Mac uses strings to identify clipboard
                  types (the char *format, sqInt formatLength) variant, as opposed to win32, which uses
                  integers (the sqInt format variant). Whichever works.

                  

                  You’ll implement it in platforms/unix/plugins/ClipboardExtendedPlugin/sqUnixExtendedClipboard.c

Thanks

As John said it doesn't appear to exist for Linux. But X11 has a clipboard and implementing the innards for X11 shouldn't be that difficult. The only complication is that if one wants to do the job "properly" one has to extend the indirection scheme Ian Piumarta came up with so that it can work on the other graphical back-ends such as the raw frame buffer. Hillaire, if you're interested in implementing the X11 ExtendedClipboard internals I'm happy to answer any questions you have.
