Is there any way to copy text from a Blitz program into the Windows clipboard to be able to past it into notepad / URL etc. and vice versa?

Thank you for that Yasha. Helped a lot.

Since I have had difficulty for some reason wsetting up an effective "New Blitz Document" template for allowing .bb files to be created via the shell context menu, I have actually gotten into the habit of creating New .txt files and often even beginning writing the program for a while before changing the extension to .bb

So yeah, it's perfectly okay to do so.

Basically, the .bb files are just text in the format for the compiler to read and the IDE to understand and work with.

Hi Malice

I'm not sure if this is the right forum you meant to post this in... but I usually create a new text document and rename it to .bb which works fine with me.
