in reply to Clipboard transform keys

Here is another clipboard transform that I use. It splits the clipboard text in half and adds the second half to the end of the first half line-by-line, so this:
 a
 b
 c
 d
 e
 f
becodes this:
 a d
 b e
 c f
I call it "clipjoin.cmd" and bind it to Ctrl-Shift-J.
