Another Reminder update. I realised that, if I send several messages over the wire, only the last one gets copied to the clipboard. Well, no more, now if you have multiple message windows open and you click on one, it's text is copied to the clipboard. If you want to change what's on the clipboard, you just click another one. The source file to do this is available after the flip. Props to Freenode's ##java for helping me figure out WindowAdapter.
