   Oops. I had saved a spot for pasting the value but forgot to paste it.   
      
   If desired, create a custom "seedclip" command for the Windows RunBox.   
      
    a. Rightclick on the App Paths key in the system registry.   
       HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\   
    b. Create a new key called "seedclip.exe" & set the string value   
       Key = seedclip.exe (note that the keyword must end with ".exe"   
       Value = C:\whatever\seedclip.bat   
    c. To seed the Windows clipboard, just press the "Windows+R" sequence   
       to bring up the Windows RunBox and type "seedclip" & then hit Enter.   
      
   Note that the "App Paths" key can point to more than just a batch file.   
   It can point to a shortcut or executable or any registered document type.   
      
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\   
    Key = keyword1.exe (note that the keyword must end with ".exe"   
    Value = C:\whatever\file.lnk (the file doesn't have to match the keyword)   
      
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\   
    Key = keyword2.exe (note that the keyword must end with ".exe"   
    Value = C:\whatever\file.exe (the file doesn't have to match the keyword)   
      
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\   
    Key = keyword1.exe (note that the keyword must end with ".exe"   
    Value = C:\whatever\file.docx (the file type should be registered)
