The
Scrapbook in
MacOS is a sort of extended
Clipboard. Like the Clipboard, it can store
objects of any sort that can be
cut and pasted -- be they
text,
styled text,
sound,
graphics,
3DMF objects, and so forth. Unlike the Clipboard, it can store any number of such objects, but these objects must be manually added to it by pasting or
dragging -- there is no
keyboard shortcut to do so.
Since System 7.5, the Scrapbook has largely been supplanted by the use of clipping files.
