Now that more OS/2 PM apps have hit the streets (with retail or beta releases),
does anyone have a feel of what the de facto clipboard exchange formats might
be for the following data types?

	1) Object-based graphics (PM Metafile?).
	2) Bitmap-based graphics (TIFF?).
	3) Word processor text (Rich Text Format?).
