*copied-character-format*

The initial value of this variable is nil. Its value must be either nil or an instance of the character-format class. It should not be set directly, but should be set using the Edit | Copy Format command on a rich-edit-menubar (on a rich-edit-dialog). Edit | Paste Format can be used to paste the format to another rich-edit-pane location.

Note that these Edit menu commands are only on the Edit menu of a rich-edit menubar, not on the standard Allegro CL Edit menu.

See cg-rich-text.htm for information about rich text editing in Common Graphics.
