Clipboard Sharing via Rendezvous

DrC writes "ClipboardSharing lets you send your clipboard between Mac OS X computers. You can use it to send or download almost anything that can be copied to a clipboard, including formatted text and images, and because it uses Rendezvous to find computers on the local network it is very simple and efficient to use. It is designed to be used from the menu bar, so it doesn't take space and it's always available." I used to have something thrown together for this in Mac OS, nice to see something easy to use for Mac OS X.

I don't care that it is via Rendezvous, that's just an implementation detail. My previous code did it via AppleTalk, which also had automatic discovery.

And we all know that Rendezvous is just AppleTalk Phase I done over IP with standard protocols instead of DDP with Apple protocols... Hopefully they'll discover again soon that it needs to be routable to be useful. Then we'll be back to where we were in, what, '87?

I have two Appletalk Zones (Ethertalk, Localtalk) and two IP subnets (2 WAP's) on my home network - AppleTalk Phase II services work just great, Rendezvous not so much.
