#' Import/export from clipboard
#'
#' These are helper functions around \code{\link{read.table}} and \code{\link{write.table}} to import from and export to clipboard. The data will be read and written as tab-separated by default, which makes it possible to copy and paste from other software like Excel and SPSS without further transformation.
#' @rdname clipboard
#' @name clipboard
#' @inheritParams utils::read.table
#' @inheritParams utils::write.table
#' @param startrow \emph{n}th row to start importing from. For \code{clipboard_import}, when \code{header = TRUE} the import will start on row \code{startrow} \emph{below} the header.
#' @param as_vector a logical value indicating whether data consisting of only one column should be imported as vector using \code{\link[dplyr]{pull}}. This will strip off the header.
#' @param info print info about copying
#' @keywords clipboard clipboard_import clipboard_export import export
#' @importFrom dplyr %>% pull as_tibble
#' @importFrom utils read.delim write.table object.size
#' @details For \code{clipboard_export}, the reserved clipboard size for exporting will be set automatically to 125\% of the object size of \code{x}. This way, it is possible to export data with thousands of rows as the only limit will be your systems RAM.
