copy paste message box

when you get a message box, you can copy paste it to notepad kella metel ma hiyyeh. you can't select its content to copy it, so all you have to do it ctrl+c (no need to select anything, aslan you can't) and paste in notepad, and you get the whole message box in ascii. usefull when you get error messages....

here is what you get for the notepad box that prompts you to save the file before closing (used this just to show the effect, was'nt able to get an error message, weird.... ):

---------------------------
Notepad
---------------------------
The text in the Untitled file has changed.

Do you want to save the changes?
---------------------------
Yes   No   Cancel

Me neither, quite useful if you have one of those huge DirectX errors while using Windows.
