Hi Thomas,

I am pretty sure it would not be easy to provide a mime type for a copy operation from a pure JavaScript web application because of browser security paranoia.

IMO, DW should accept text/plain and be smart to recognise its type. There are many web sites that show the SMILES of a compound as a text that can be selected and copied.

I tried once a ChemAxon molecule drawing program on a Window 8 computer. This program accepted the drag and drop (D&D) from JSME, which is very convenient. I guess that the molecule drawing program needs only to accept a paste operation with text/plain mime type for D&D to work.

Bruno

PS: I implemented the copy/paste and D&D in JSME
