Take care,

Harald, I think you indirectly showed me the causing issue: It's:
::twapi::read_clipboard 1
Somehow it does different things than "clipboard get".
In the twapi manual it states:
"The content is an exact copy of the contents of the clipboard in binary
format. Callers will need to use Tcl commands such as binary and
encoding to parse the data."
I tried
set text [encoding convertfrom cp1252 $text]
but no success.
