You are right. On the Macintosh and Linux the current clipboard support is limited: The object in the clipboard is an OpenChemLib molecule. You may past it into any OpenChemLib based application (e.g. DataWarrior), but other applications don't know about the format. As a workaround you could make a screenShot of the molecule area, but I agree that the result, a pixel image in screen resolution, is sub-optimal. On Windows DataWarrior uses a dll to also provide a vector image, a ChemDraw molecule and MDL scetch, depending on what the target application knows and prefers.
