Cannot copy styled text to clipboard (under macOS) #151

If this is a duplicate, my apologies. I couldn't find any other issue that refers to it.

Under macOS (possibly on other platforms, but I haven't tested it), when you try to copy styled text to the clipboard, you can paste the clipboard contents into SimpleText and other simple text editors, but you can't paste it into programs that support styled text.

For example, using Script Debugger 3.0.9, you can copy styled text to the clipboard, but you can't paste it back into Script Debugger - though you can paste that text into SimpleText. The same thing occurs (if I remember correctly) with styled text copied from ClarisWorks. You can't copy it back to any program that also supports styled text.

There's a thread about this here:

Is it possible to fix this problem? Many thanks for any efforts on this issue.
