Support in Windows 8.1

[kuzzmi]

Sup guys.

Just tried to use that in Windows 8.1 x64 but without success.

Problem:

λ node
> require("copy-paste").global()
{ copy: [Function],
  paste: [Function],
  silent: [Function],
  noConflict: [Function],
  global: [Function] }
> copy('asd')
'asd'
> paste()
'\r\n'
>

I've tried to dig around and found this article. So if I try to use a library within a script file and override require("copy-paste").paste method to use the binary from article then everything works fine. Don't know whether that should be a "fallback". If so, let me know, I'll do a pull request.

Cheers,
Igor

Yeah that'd make a great fallback. A pull request would be much appreciated.

Also what kind of errors were you getting with the VBscript?

[Otoris]

Think I'm getting a similar issue. VBscript looks to fail in Windows 8.1 x64.

Ahh, cool. I'll implemented the fallback @kuzzmi recommended.

I just published a new version that did path concat'ing a little different. Would you mind updating and trying it out?

[Otoris]

Just reinstalled in a blank directory, appears to be the same issue.

Executing the paste.vbs from explorer seems to work and pops up what's on my clipboard.

However if I directly execute the command in cmd, this is what I get. (after fixing the spacing in the path manually)

I definitely have RAM and storage free.

Thanks! That was quick.

Hmm, I think it might be because "Sites symlink" path has a space in it. I just published a new version (v1.1.2) that quoted the directory path. Mind trying out this version as well?

[Otoris]

Boom! You fixed it.

Thanks,
